KVM: arm64: Add usage of stage 2 fault lookup level in user_mem_abort()
If we get a FSC_PERM fault, just using (logging_active && writable) to
determine calling kvm_pgtable_stage2_map(). There will be two more cases
we should consider.
(1) After logging_active is configged back to false from true. When we
get a FSC_PERM fault with write_fault and adjustment of hugepage is needed,
we should merge tables back to a block entry. This case is ignored by still
calling kvm_pgtable_stage2_relax_perms(), which will lead to an endless
loop and guest panic due to soft lockup.
(2) We use (FSC_PERM && logging_active && writable) to determine
collapsing a block entry into a table by calling kvm_pgtable_stage2_map().
But sometimes we may only need to relax permissions when trying to write
to a page other than a block.
In this condition,using kvm_pgtable_stage2_relax_perms() will be fine.
The ISS filed bit[1:0] in ESR_EL2 regesiter indicates the stage2 lookup
level at which a D-abort or I-abort occurred. By comparing granule of
the fault lookup level with vma_pagesize, we can strictly distinguish
conditions of calling kvm_pgtable_stage2_relax_perms() or
kvm_pgtable_stage2_map(), and the above two cases will be well considered.
