Claudio Imbrenda 292a7d6fca KVM: s390: pv: fix asynchronous teardown for small VMs
On machines without the Destroy Secure Configuration Fast UVC, the
topmost level of page tables is set aside and freed asynchronously
as last step of the asynchronous teardown.

Each gmap has a host_to_guest radix tree mapping host (userspace)
addresses (with 1M granularity) to gmap segment table entries (pmds).

If a guest is smaller than 2GB, the topmost level of page tables is the
segment table (i.e. there are only 2 levels). Replacing it means that
the pointers in the host_to_guest mapping would become stale and cause
all kinds of nasty issues.

This patch fixes the issue by disallowing asynchronous teardown for
guests with only 2 levels of page tables. Userspace should (and already
does) try using the normal destroy if the asynchronous one fails.

Update s390_replace_asce so it refuses to replace segment type ASCEs.
This is still needed in case the normal destroy VM fails.

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.
