If a vcpu exits for a data abort with an invalid syndrome, the expectations are that userspace has a chance to save the day if it has requested to see such exits. However, this is completely futile in the case of a protected VM, as none of the state is available. In this particular case, inject a data abort directly into the vcpu, consistent with what userspace could do. This also helps with pKVM, which discards all syndrome information when forwarding data aborts that are not known to be MMIO. Finally, document this tweak to the API.

README
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 reStructuredText 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.
