Hi all,

This series moves the hypervisor's ownership state to the hyp_vmemmap,
as discussed in [1]. The two main benefits are:

 1. much cheaper hyp state lookups, since we can avoid the hyp stage-1
    page-table walk;

 2. de-correlates the hyp state from the presence of a mapping in the
    linear map range of the hypervisor; which enables a bunch of
    clean-ups in the existing code and will simplify the introduction of
    other features in the future (hyp tracing, ...)

Patch 01 is a self-sufficient cleanup that I found thanks to patch 06.
Patch 02 is another self-sufficient cleanup that came out from the
discussion with Marc at [2]. Patches 03-05 implement the aforementioned
migration of the hyp state to the vmemmap. Patches 06 and 07 are further
improvements enabled by that migration.

Changes since v1:
 - fixed page-tracking comments in nvhe/memory.h
 - rebased on 6.15-rc2
 - applied Marc's Reviewed-by

Thanks,
Quentin
