Subject: ARM/ARM64: KVM: Nuke Hyp-mode tlbs before enabling MMU

From: Pranavkumar Sawargaonkar <[email protected]>

commit f6edbbf36da3a27b298b66c7955fc84e1dcca305 upstream.

X-Gene u-boot runs in EL2 mode with MMU enabled hence we might
have stale EL2 tlb enteris when we enable EL2 MMU on each host CPU.

This can happen on any ARM/ARM64 board running bootloader in
Hyp-mode (or EL2-mode) with MMU enabled.

This patch ensures that we flush all Hyp-mode (or EL2-mode) TLBs
on each host CPU before enabling Hyp-mode (or EL2-mode) MMU.
