FEAT_LPA2 increases the maximum levels of translation from 4 to 5 for the 4KB page case, when IA is >48 bits. While we can still use 4 levels for stage2 translation in this case (due to stage2 allowing concatenated page tables for first level lookup), the same kvm_pgtable library is used for the hyp stage1 page tables and stage1 does not support concatenation. Therefore, modify the library to support up to 5 levels. Previous patches already laid the groundwork for this by refactoring code to work in terms of KVM_PGTABLE_FIRST_LEVEL and KVM_PGTABLE_LAST_LEVEL. So we just need to change these macros. The hardware sometimes encodes the new level differently from the others: One such place is when reading the level from the FSC field in the ESR_EL2 register. We never expect to see the lowest level (-1) here since the stage 2 page tables always use concatenated tables for first level lookup and therefore only use 4 levels of lookup. So we get away with just adding a comment to explain why we are not being careful about decoding level -1. For stage2 VTCR_EL2.SL2 is introduced to encode the new start level. However, since we always use concatenated page tables for first level look up at stage2 (and therefore we will never need the new extra level) we never touch this new field.

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.
