The hyp code FPSIMD/SVE/SME trap handling logic has some rather messy open-coded manipulation of CPTR/CPACR. This is benign for non-nested guests, but broken for nested guests, as the guest hypervisor's CPTR configuration is not taken into account. Consider the case where L0 provides FPSIMD+SVE to an L1 guest hypervisor, and the L1 guest hypervisor only provides FPSIMD to an L2 guest (with L1 configuring CPTR/CPACR to trap SVE usage from L2). If the L2 guest triggers an FPSIMD trap to the L0 hypervisor, kvm_hyp_handle_fpsimd() will see that the vCPU supports FPSIMD+SVE, and will configure CPTR/CPACR to NOT trap FPSIMD+SVE before returning to the L2 guest. Consequently the L2 guest would be able to manipulate SVE state even though the L1 hypervisor had configured CPTR/CPACR to forbid this. Clean this up, and fix the nested virt issue by always using __deactivate_cptr_traps() and __activate_cptr_traps() to manage the CPTR traps. This removes the need for the ad-hoc fixup in kvm_hyp_save_fpsimd_host(), and ensures that any guest hypervisor configuration of CPTR/CPACR is taken into account.

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 reStructuredText 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.
