KVM: arm64: Force injection of a data abort on NISV MMIO exit
If a vcpu exits for a data abort with an invalid syndrome, the
expectations are that userspace has a chance to save the day if
it has requested to see such exits.
However, this is completely futile in the case of a protected VM,
as none of the state is available. In this particular case, inject
a data abort directly into the vcpu, consistent with what userspace
could do.
This also helps with pKVM, which discards all syndrome information when
forwarding data aborts that are not known to be MMIO.
Finally, document this tweak to the API.
