Move the initialization of shadow NPT MMU's shadow_root_level into
kvm_init_shadow_npt_mmu() and explicitly set the level in the shadow NPT
MMU's role to be the TDP level. This ensures the role and MMU levels
are synchronized and also initialized before __kvm_mmu_new_pgd(), which
consumes the level when attempting a fast PGD switch.

This patch adds a new capability KVM_CAP_SMALLER_MAXPHYADDR which
allows userspace to query if the underlying architecture would
support GUEST_MAXPHYADDR < HOST_MAXPHYADDR and hence act accordingly
(e.g. qemu can decide if it should warn for -cpu ..,phys-bits=X)
The complications in this patch are due to unexpected (but documented)
behaviour we see with NPF vmexit handling in AMD processor. If
SVM is modified to add guest physical address checks in the NPF
and guest #PF paths, we see the followning error multiple times in
the 'access' test in kvm-unit-tests:
test pte.p pte.36 pde.p: FAIL: pte 2000021 expected 2000001
Dump mapping: address: 0x123400000000
------L4: 24c3027
------L3: 24c4027
------L2: 24c5021
------L1: 1002000021
This is because the PTE's accessed bit is set by the CPU hardware before
the NPF vmexit. This is handled completely by hardware and cannot be fixed
in software.
Therefore, availability of the new capability depends on a boolean variable
allow_smaller_maxphyaddr which is set individually by VMX and SVM init
routines. On VMX it's always set to true, on SVM it's only set to true
when NPT is not enabled.

Check guest physical address against its maximum, which depends on the
guest MAXPHYADDR. If the guest's physical address exceeds the
maximum (i.e. has reserved bits set), inject a guest page fault with
PFERR_RSVD_MASK set.
This has to be done both in the EPT violation and page fault paths, as
there are complications in both cases with respect to the computation
of the correct error code.
For EPT violations, unfortunately the only possibility is to emulate,
because the access type in the exit qualification might refer to an
access to a paging structure, rather than to the access performed by
the program.
Trapping page faults instead is needed in order to correct the error code,
but the access type can be obtained from the original error code and
passed to gva_to_gpa. The corrections required in the error code are
subtle. For example, imagine that a PTE for a supervisor page has a reserved
bit set. On a supervisor-mode access, the EPT violation path would trigger.
However, on a user-mode access, the processor will not notice the reserved
bit and not include PFERR_RSVD_MASK in the error code.

Intel processors of various generations have supported 36, 39, 46 or 52
bits for physical addresses. Until IceLake introduced MAXPHYADDR==52,
running on a machine with higher MAXPHYADDR than the guest more or less
worked, because software that relied on reserved address bits (like KVM)
generally used bit 51 as a marker and therefore the page faults where
generated anyway.
Unfortunately this is not true anymore if the host MAXPHYADDR is 52,
and this can cause problems when migrating from a MAXPHYADDR<52
machine to one with MAXPHYADDR==52. Typically, the latter are machines
that support 5-level page tables, so they can be identified easily from
the LA57 CPUID bit.
When that happens, the guest might have a physical address with reserved
bits set, but the host won't see that and trap it. Hence, we need
to check page faults' physical addresses against the guest's maximum
physical memory and if it's exceeded, we need to add the PFERR_RSVD_MASK
bits to the page fault error code.
This patch does this for the MMU's page walks. The next patches will
ensure that the correct exception and error code is produced whenever
no host-reserved bits are set in page table entries.

Undesired triple fault gets injected to L1 guest on SVM when L2 is
launched with certain CR3 values. #TF is raised by mmu_check_root()
check in fast_pgd_switch() and the root cause is that when
kvm_set_cr3() is called from nested_prepare_vmcb_save() with NPT
enabled CR3 points to a nGPA so we can't check it with
kvm_is_visible_gfn().
Using generic kvm_set_cr3() when switching to nested guest is not
a great idea as we'll have to distinguish between 'real' CR3s and
'nested' CR3s to e.g. not call kvm_mmu_new_pgd() with nGPA. Following
nVMX implement nested-specific nested_svm_load_cr3() doing the job.
To support the change, nested_svm_load_cr3() needs to be re-ordered
with nested_svm_init_mmu_context().
Note: the current implementation is sub-optimal as we always do TLB
flush/MMU sync but this is still an improvement as we at least stop doing
kvm_mmu_reset_context().

Clean up the minimums in mmu_topup_memory_caches() to document the
driving mechanisms behind the minimums. Now that encountering an empty

precise when defining the minimums.
For rmaps, the logic is 1 parent PTE per level, plus a single rmap, and
prefetched rmaps. The extra objects in the current '8 + PREFETCH'
minimum came about due to an abundance of paranoia in commit
c41ef344de ("KVM: MMU: increase per-vcpu rmap cache alloc size"),
i.e. it could have increased the minimum to 2 rmaps. Furthermore, the
unexpected extra rmap case was killed off entirely by commits
f759e2b4c7 ("KVM: MMU: avoid pte_list_desc running out in
kvm_mmu_pte_write") and f5a1e9f895 ("KVM: MMU: remove call to
kvm_mmu_pte_write from walk_addr").
For the so called page cache, replace '8' with 2*PT64_ROOT_MAX_LEVEL.
The 2x multiplier is needed because the cache is used for both shadow
pages and gfn arrays for indirect MMUs.
And finally, for page headers, replace '4' with PT64_ROOT_MAX_LEVEL.
Note, KVM now supports 5-level paging, i.e. the old minimums that used a
baseline derived from 4-level paging were technically wrong. But, KVM
always allocates roots in a separate flow, e.g. it's impossible in the
current implementation to actually need 5 new shadow pages in a single
flow. Use PT64_ROOT_MAX_LEVEL unmodified instead of subtracting 1, as
the direct usage is likely more intuitive to uninformed readers, and the
inflated minimum is unlikely to affect functionality in practice.

Topup memory caches after walking the GVA->GPA translation during a
shadow page fault, there is no need to ensure the caches are full when
walking the GVA. As of commit f5a1e9f895 ("KVM: MMU: remove call
to kvm_mmu_pte_write from walk_addr"), the FNAME(walk_addr) flow no
longer add rmaps via kvm_mmu_pte_write().
This avoids allocating memory in the case that the GVA is unmapped in
the guest, and also provides a paper trail of why/when the memory caches
need to be filled.

Avoid refilling the memory caches and potentially slow reclaim/swap when
handling a fast page fault, which does not need to allocate any new
objects.

Attempt to allocate a new object instead of crashing KVM (and likely the
kernel) if a memory cache is unexpectedly empty. Use GFP_ATOMIC for the
allocation as the caches are used while holding mmu_lock. The immediate
BUG_ON() makes the code unnecessarily explosive and led to confusing
minimums being used in the past, e.g. allocating 4 objects where 1 would
suffice.
