As a result, an AArch32 VM can't run, a VM can read GMID_EL1 or execute a TLBI OS its ID registers hide, and the host's TVM, VI and VF never reach it. Rather than add each missing bit at EL2, the third patch uses the host's HCR_EL2 on every entry, except for the bits EL2 owns. A bit added to vcpu_set_hcr() then reaches pKVM with no change at EL2, unless it opens state EL2 doesn't switch, in which case it goes in PKVM_HCR_EL2_OWNED, as ATA and DCT do. The third patch depends on the first: once TTLBOS reaches the VM, a trapped TLBI OS from a non-nested guest hits a WARN in handle_tlbi_el1(), as it does without pKVM. The last patch adds a selftest that checks a feature hidden in an ID register is UNDEFINED in the guest. Its TLBI OS case fails in pKVM before the third patch. VSE still comes from the host as before. Syncing it back after delivery is a separate fix [1]. Based on Linux 7.3-rc4 (93f51579e7df2).
