Marc Zyngier 153ed820d5 arm64: Fix early handling of FEAT_E2H0 not being implemented
[ Upstream commit b3320142f3 ]

Commit 3944382fa6 introduced checks for the FEAT_E2H0 not being
implemented. However, the check is absolutely wrong and makes a
point it testing a bit that is guaranteed to be zero.

On top of that, the detection happens way too late, after the
init_el2_state has done its job.

This went undetected because the HW this was tested on has E2H being
RAO/WI, and not RES1. However, the bug shows up when run as a nested
guest, where HCR_EL2.E2H is not necessarily set to 1. As a result,
booting the kernel in hVHE mode fails with timer accesses being
cought in a trap loop (which was fun to debug).

Fix the check for ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1.E2H0, and set the HCR_EL2.E2H bit
early so that it can be checked by the rest of the init sequence.

With this, hVHE works again in a NV environment that doesn't have
FEAT_E2H0.

Fixes: 3944382fa6 ("arm64: Treat HCR_EL2.E2H as RES1 when ID_AA64MMFR4_EL1.E2H0 is negative")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
