[PATCH v4 09/21] KVM: arm64: Tolerate re-creating hyp mappings to set software bits

From: Quentin Perret
Date: Mon Aug 09 2021 - 11:25:26 EST


The current hypervisor stage-1 mapping code doesn't allow changing an
existing valid mapping. Relax this condition by allowing changes that
only target software bits, as that will soon be needed to annotate shared
pages.
