commit 67f8a8c1151c9ef3d1285905d1e66ebb769ecdf7 upstream.
Aneesh Kumar reported seeing host crashes when running recent kernels
on POWER8. The symptom was an oops like this:
Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0xf00000000786c620
Faulting instruction address: 0xc00000000030e1e4
Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

It turns out that what has happened is that the SLB entry for the
vmmemap region hasn't been reloaded on exit from a guest, and it has
the wrong page size. Then, when the host next accesses the vmemmap
region, it gets a page fault.
Commit a25bd72badfa ("powerpc/mm/radix: Workaround prefetch issue with
KVM", 2017-07-24) modified the guest exit code so that it now only clears
out the SLB for hash guest. The code tests the radix flag and puts the
result in a non-volatile CR field, CR2, and later branches based on CR2.
Unfortunately, the kvmppc_save_tm function, which gets called between
those two points, modifies all the user-visible registers in the case
where the guest was in transactional or suspended state, except for a
few which it restores (namely r1, r2, r9 and r13). Thus the hash/radix indication in CR2 gets corrupted.
This fixes the problem by re-doing the comparison just before the
result is needed. For good measure, this also adds comments next to
the call sites of kvmppc_save_tm and kvmppc_restore_tm pointing out
that non-volatile register state will be lost.
