Marc Zyngier b8f8d190fa KVM: arm64: Document the behaviour of S1PTW faults on RO memslots
Although the KVM API says that a write to a RO memslot must result
in a KVM_EXIT_MMIO describing the write, the arm64 architecture
doesn't provide the *data* written by a Stage-1 page table walk
(we only get the address).

Since there isn't much userspace can do with so little information
anyway, document the fact that such an access results in a guest
exception, not an exit. This is consistent with the guest being
terminally broken anyway.

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.
