ARM64 standard pgtable functions are going to use pgtable_page_[ctor|dtor] or pgtable_pmd_page_[ctor|dtor] constructs. At present KVM guest stage-2 PUD|PMD|PTE level page tabe pages are allocated with __get_free_page() via mmu_memory_cache_alloc() but released with standard pud|pmd_free() or pte_free_kernel(). These will fail once they start calling into pgtable_ [pmd]_page_dtor() for pages which never originally went through respective constructor functions. Hence convert all stage-2 page table page release functions to call buddy directly while freeing pages.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
