[v6,09/12] KVM: arm64: Support up to 5 levels of translation in kvm_pgtable

Commit Message

FEAT_LPA2 increases the maximum levels of translation from 4 to 5 for
the 4KB page case, when IA is >48 bits. While we can still use 4 levels
for stage2 translation in this case (due to stage2 allowing concatenated
page tables for first level lookup), the same kvm_pgtable library is
used for the hyp stage1 page tables and stage1 does not support
concatenation.

Therefore, modify the library to support up to 5 levels. Previous
patches already laid the groundwork for this by refactoring code to work
in terms of KVM_PGTABLE_FIRST_LEVEL and KVM_PGTABLE_LAST_LEVEL. So we
just need to change these macros.

The hardware sometimes encodes the new level differently from the
others: One such place is when reading the level from the FSC field in
the ESR_EL2 register. We never expect to see the lowest level (-1) here
since the stage 2 page tables always use concatenated tables for first
level lookup and therefore only use 4 levels of lookup. So we get away
with just adding a comment to explain why we are not being careful about
decoding level -1.

For stage2 VTCR_EL2.SL2 is introduced to encode the new start level.
However, since we always use concatenated page tables for first level
look up at stage2 (and therefore we will never need the new extra level)
we never touch this new field.
