KVM: Avoid illegal stage2 mapping on invalid memory slot
We run into guest hang in edk2 firmware when KSM is kept as running on the host. The edk2 firmware is waiting for status 0x80 from QEMU's pflash device (TYPE_PFLASH_CFI01) during the operation of sector erasing or buffered write. The status is returned by reading the memory region of the pflash device and the read request should have been forwarded to QEMU and emulated by it. Unfortunately, the read request is covered by an illegal stage2 mapping when the guest hang issue occurs. The read request is completed with QEMU bypassed and wrong status is fetched. The edk2 firmware runs into an infinite loop with the wrong status. The illegal stage2 mapping is populated due to same page sharing by KSM at (C) even the associated memory slot has been marked as invalid at (B) when the memory slot is requested to be deleted. It's notable that the active and inactive memory slots can't be swapped when we're in the middle of kvm_mmu_notifier_change_pte() because kvm->mn_active_invalidate_count is elevated, and kvm_swap_active_memslots() will busy loop until it reaches to zero again. Besides, the swapping from the active to the inactive memory slots is also avoided by holding &kvm->srcu in __kvm_handle_hva_range(), corresponding to synchronize_srcu_expedited() in kvm_swap_active_memslots().

In this way, the correct pflash's status can be returned from QEMU to break the infinite loop in the edk2 firmware. We tried a git-bisect and the first problematic commit iscd4c718352
(" KVM: arm64: Convert to the gfn-based MMU notifier callbacks"). With this, clean_dcache_guest_page() is called after the memory slots are iterated in kvm_mmu_notifier_change_pte(). clean_dcache_guest_page() is called before the iteration on the memory slots before this commit. This change literally enlarges the racy window between kvm_mmu_notifier_change_pte() and memory slot removal so that we're able to reproduce the issue in a practical test case. However, the issue exists since commitd5d8184d35
