Christoffer Dall 191e0e1555 KVM: arm64: nv: Only toggle cache for virtual EL2 when SCTLR_EL2 changes
So far we were flushing almost the entire universe whenever a VM would
load/unload the SCTLR_EL1 and the two versions of that register had
different MMU enabled settings.  This turned out to be so slow that it
prevented forward progress for a nested VM, because a scheduler timer
tick interrupt would always be pending when we reached the nested VM.

To avoid this problem, we consider the SCTLR_EL2 when evaluating if
caches are on or off when entering virtual EL2 (because this is the
value that we end up shadowing onto the hardware EL1 register).

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
