KVM: arm64: Initialize VCPU mdcr_el2 before loading it
[ Upstream commit 263d6287da1433aba11c5b4046388f2cdf49675c ]
When a VCPU is created, the kvm_vcpu struct is initialized to zero in
kvm_vm_ioctl_create_vcpu(). On VHE systems, the first time
vcpu.arch.mdcr_el2 is loaded on hardware is in vcpu_load(), before it is
set to a sensible value in kvm_arm_setup_debug() later in the run loop. The
result is that KVM executes for a short time with MDCR_EL2 set to zero.
This has several unintended consequences:
* Setting MDCR_EL2.HPMN to 0 is constrained unpredictable according to ARM
DDI 0487G.a, page D13-3820. The behavior specified by the architecture
in this case is for the PE to behave as if MDCR_EL2.HPMN is set to a
value less than or equal to PMCR_EL0.N, which means that an unknown
number of counters are now disabled by MDCR_EL2.HPME, which is zero.
* The host configuration for the other debug features controlled by
MDCR_EL2 is temporarily lost. This has been harmless so far, as Linux
doesn't use the other fields, but that might change in the future.
Let's avoid both issues by initializing the VCPU's mdcr_el2 field in
kvm_vcpu_vcpu_first_run_init(), thus making sure that the MDCR_EL2 register
has a consistent value after each vcpu_load().
