Subject: [PATCH v4 1/3] kvm: arm64: introduce new flag for non-cacheable IO memory

From: Ankit Agrawal <ankita@...dia.com>

For various reasons described in the cover letter, and primarily to
allow VM get IO memory with NORMALNC properties, it is desired
to relax the KVM stage 2 device memory attributes from DEVICE_nGnRE
to NormalNC. So set S2 PTE for IO memory as NORMAL_NC.

A Normal-NC flag is not present today. So add a new kvm_pgtable_prot
(KVM_PGTABLE_PROT_NORMAL_NC) flag for it, along with its
corresponding PTE value 0x5 (0b101) determined from [1].

Lastly, adapt the stage2 PTE property setter function
(stage2_set_prot_attr) to handle the NormalNC attribute.
