The 'len' variable was declared an unsigned and then checked for less
than 0, which results in warnings on some compilers.  Since len is
assigned an int, make it an int.

<title>arm64: KVM: fix 2-level page tables unmapping</title>

When using 64kB pages, we only have two levels of page tables,
meaning that PGD, PUD and PMD are fused. In this case, trying
to refcount PUDs and PMDs independently is a a complete disaster,
as they are the same.

We manage to get it right for the allocation (stage2_set_pte uses
{pmd,pud}_none), but the unmapping path clears both pud and pmd
refcounts, which fails spectacularly with 2-level page tables.

The fix is to avoid calling clear_pud_entry when both the pmd and
pud pages are empty. For this, and instead of introducing another
pud_empty function, consolidate both pte_empty and pmd_empty into
page_empty (the code is actually identical) and use that to also
test the validity of the pud.

<title>ARM: KVM: Fix unaligned unmap_range leak</title>

The unmap_range function did not properly cover the case when the start
address was not aligned to PMD_SIZE or PUD_SIZE and an entire pte table
or pmd table was cleared, causing us to leak memory when incrementing
the addr.

The fix is to always move onto the next page table entry boundary
instead of adding the full size of the VA range covered by the
corresponding table level entry.

<title>ARM: KVM: Fix 64-bit coprocessor handling</title>

The PAR was exported as CRn == 7 and CRm == 0, but in fact the primary
coprocessor register number was determined by CRm for 64-bit coprocessor
registers as the user space API was modeled after the coprocessor
access instructions (see the ARM ARM rev. C - B3-1445).

However, just changing the CRn to CRm breaks the sorting check when
booting the kernel, because the internal kernel logic always treats CRn
as the primary register number, and it makes the table sorting
impossible to understand for humans.

Alternatively we could change the logic to always have CRn == CRm, but
that becomes unclear in the number of ways we do look up of a coprocessor
register.  We could also have a separate 64-bit table but that feels
somewhat over-engineered.  Instead, keep CRn the primary representation
of the primary coproc. register number in-kernel and always export the
primary number as CRm as per the existing user space ABI.

Note: The TTBR registers just magically worked because they happened to
follow the CRn(0) regs and were considered CRn(0) in the in-kernel
representation.

Commit d21a1c83c7595e387545632e44cd7797b76e19cc (ARM: KVM: define KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS
unconditionally) changed the Kconfig logic for KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS to work around a
build error arising from the use of KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS when CONFIG_KVM=n.  The
resulting Kconfig logic is a bit awkward and leaves a KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS always
defined in the kernel config file.

This change reverts the Kconfig logic back and adds a simple preprocessor
conditional in kvm_host.h to handle when CONFIG_KVM_ARM_MAX_VCPUS is undefined.
