Commit Message

Bertrand Marquis Sept. 16, 2021, 6:25 a.m. UTC 
Use arm64 cpu feature sanitization to TAINT Xen if different DCZID values
are found (ftr_dczid is using only STRICT method).
In this case actual memory being cleaned by DC ZVA operations would be
different depending on the cores which could make a guest zeroing too
much or too little memory if it is merged between CPUs.

We could, on processors supporting it, trap access to DCZID_EL0 register
using HFGRTR_EL2 register but this would not solve the case where a
process is being migrated during a copy or if it cached the value of the
register.
