Commitddcadb297c("KVM: arm64: Ignore EAGAIN for walks outside of a fault") introduced a new walker flag ('KVM_PGTABLE_WALK_HANDLE_FAULT') to KVM's page-table code. When set, the walk logic maintains its previous behaviour of terminating a walk as soon as the visitor callback returns an error. However, when the flag is clear, the walk will continue if the visitor returns -EAGAIN and the error is then suppressed and returned as zero to the caller. Clearing the flag is beneficial when write-protecting a range of IPAs with kvm_pgtable_stage2_wrprotect() but is not useful in any other cases, either because we are operating on a single page (e.g. kvm_pgtable_stage2_mkyoung() or kvm_phys_addr_ioremap()) or because the early termination is desirable (e.g. when mapping pages from a fault in user_mem_abort()). Subsequently, commite912efed48("KVM: arm64: Introduce the EL1 pKVM MMU") hooked up pKVM's hypercall interface to the MMU code at EL1 but failed to propagate any of the walker flags. As a result, page-table walks at EL2 fail to set KVM_PGTABLE_WALK_HANDLE_FAULT even when the early termination semantics are desirable on the fault handling path. Rather than complicate the pKVM hypercall interface, invert the flag so that the whole thing can be simplified and only pass the new flag ('KVM_PGTABLE_WALK_IGNORE_EAGAIN') from the wrprotect code.
