arm/kvm: excise redundant cache maintenance
When modifying Stage-2 page tables, we perform cache maintenance to account for non-coherent page table walks. However, this is unnecessary, as page table walks are guaranteed to be coherent in the presence of the virtualization extensions. Per ARM DDI 0406C.c, section B1.7 ("The Virtualization Extensions"), the virtualization extensions mandate the multiprocessing extensions. Per ARM DDI 0406C.c, section B3.10.1 ("General TLB maintenance requirements"), as described in the sub-section titled "TLB maintenance operations and the memory order model", this maintenance is not required in the presence of the multiprocessing extensions. Hence, we need not perform this cache maintenance when modifying Stage-2 entries. This patch removes the logic for performing the redundant maintenance. To ensure visibility and ordering of updates, a dsb(ishst) that was otherwise implicit in the maintenance is folded into kvm_set_pmd() and kvm_set_pte().
