[PATCH 3/4] s390/mm: prevent and break zero page mappings in case of storage keys

[Dominik Dingel]

As soon as storage keys are enabled we need to stop working on zero page
mappings to prevent inconsistencies between storage keys and pgste.

Otherwise following data corruption could happen:
1) guest enables storage key
2) guest sets storage key for not mapped page X
   -> change goes to PGSTE
3) guest reads from page X
   -> as X was not dirty before, the page will be zero page backed,
      storage key from PGSTE for X will go to storage key for zero page
4) guest sets storage key for not mapped page Y (same logic as above
5) guest reads from page Y
   -> as Y was not dirty before, the page will be zero page backed,
      storage key from PGSTE for Y will got to storage key for zero page
      overwriting storage key for X

While holding the mmap sem, we are safe against changes on entries we
already fixed, as every fault would need to take the mmap_sem (read).

Other vCPUs executing storage key instructions will get a one time interception
and be serialized also with mmap_sem.
