As per ARM ARM DDI 0487G.a, when FEAT_LPA2 is implemented, ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1
might contain a range of values to describe supported translation granules
(4K and 16K pages sizes in particular) instead of just enabled or disabled
values. This changes __enable_mmu() function to handle complete acceptable
range of values (depending on whether the field is signed or unsigned) now
represented with ID_AA64MMFR0_TGRAN_SUPPORTED_[MIN..MAX] pair. While here,
also fix similar situations in EFI stub and KVM as well.

Hi,
When building an arm64 defconfig kernel from stable/linux-5.10.y and
booting that in QEMU (version: 1:7.0+dfsg-2~bpo11+2) with '-cpu max' the
kernel doesn't boot. I don't get any output. The kernel boots fine if I
change to '-cpu cortex-a72'.
If I cherry-pick this patch to stable/linux-5.10.y I'm able too boot the
kernel with '-cpu max'.
You can workaround the kernel boot failure by specifying
'-cpu max,lpa2=off' [*] in the QEMU command line.
However, I'm not comfortable to backport this patch to older kernels
since there are a lot of conflicts.
Can someone help out to do the packport?
Upstream commit 26f55386f964 ("arm64/mm: Fix __enable_mmu() for new
TGRAN range values") can still be applied cleanly on top of
linux-5.10.y. I can send it to <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> if maintainers
are okay with the stable-5.10 backport.
