Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] ArmPkg/ArmMmuLib AARCH64: limit recursion when freeing 
page tables

External email: Use caution opening links or attachments


FreePageTablesRecursive () traverses the page table tree depth first
to free all pages that it finds, without taking into account the
level at which it is operating.

Since TT_TYPE_TABLE_ENTRY aliases TT_TYPE_BLOCK_ENTRY_LEVEL3, we cannot
distinguish table entries from block entries unless we take the level
into account, and so we may be dereferencing garbage if we happen to
try and free a hierarchy of page tables that has level 3 pages in it.

Let's fix this by passing the level into FreePageTablesRecursive (),
and limit the recursion to levels < 3.
