Andrew Murray a775f67b4b KVM: arm64: Write arch.mdcr_el2 changes since last vcpu_load on VHE
commit 4942dc6638 upstream.

On VHE systems arch.mdcr_el2 is written to mdcr_el2 at vcpu_load time to
set options for self-hosted debug and the performance monitors
extension.

Unfortunately the value of arch.mdcr_el2 is not calculated until
kvm_arm_setup_debug() in the run loop after the vcpu has been loaded.
This means that the initial brief iterations of the run loop use a zero
value of mdcr_el2 - until the vcpu is preempted. This also results in a
delay between changes to vcpu->guest_debug taking effect.

Fix this by writing to mdcr_el2 in kvm_arm_setup_debug() on VHE systems
when a change to arch.mdcr_el2 has been detected.

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.
