Marc Zyngier c6f8c92f3f arm64: Drop early setting of MDSCR_EL2.TPMS
When running VHE, we set MDSCR_EL2.TPMS very early on to force
the trapping of EL1 SPE accesses to EL2.

However:
- we are running with HCR_EL2.{E2H,TGE}={1,1}, meaning that there
  is no EL1 to trap from

- before entering a guest, we call kvm_arm_setup_debug(), which
  sets MDCR_EL2_TPMS in the per-vcpu shadow mdscr_el2, which gets
  applied on entry by __activate_traps_common().

The early setting of MDSCR_EL2.TPMS is therefore useless and can
be dropped.

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.
