For nvhe and protected modes, the hyp stage 1 page-tables were previously configured to have the same number of VA bits as the kernel's idmap. However, for kernel configs with VA_BITS=52 and where the kernel is loaded in physical memory below 48 bits, the idmap VA bits is actually smaller than the kernel's normal stage 1 VA bits. This can lead to kernel addresses that can't be mapped into the hypervisor, leading to kvm initialization failure during boot: kvm [1]: IPA Size Limit: 48 bits kvm [1]: Cannot map world-switch code kvm [1]: error initializing Hyp mode: -34 Fix this by ensuring that the hyp stage 1 VA size is the maximum of what's used for the idmap and the regular kernel stage 1. At the same time, refactor the code so that the hyp VA bits is only calculated in one place. Prior to7ba8f2b2d6, the idmap was always 52 bits for a 52 VA bits kernel and therefore the hyp stage1 was also always 52 bits.

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.
