Subject: [PATCH v8 07/13] KVM: arm64: define
 kvm_arch_gmem_supports_no_direct_map()

From: Patrick Roy <patrick.roy@...ux.dev>

Support for GUEST_MEMFD_FLAG_NO_DIRECT_MAP on arm64 depends on 1) direct
map manipulations at 4k granularity being possible, and 2) FEAT_S2FWB.

1) is met whenever the direct map is set up at 4k granularity (e.g. not
 with huge/gigantic pages) at boottime, as due to ARM's
break-before-make semantics, breaking huge mappings into 4k mappings in
the direct map is not possible (BBM would require temporary invalidation
of the entire huge mapping, even if only a 4k subrange should be zapped,
which will probably crash the kernel). However, current defconfigs
select for example CONFIG_RO_DATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED, which forces a 4k
direct map.

2) is required to allow KVM to elide cache coherency operations when
installing stage 2 page tables, which require the direct map to be
entry for the newly mapped memory to be present (which it will not be,
as guest_memfd would have removed direct map entries in
kvm_gmem_get_pfn()).
