KVM: arm64: Pre-check vcpu memcache for host->guest share
__pkvm_host_share_guest() ends with kvm_pgtable_stage2_map() to
install the guest stage-2 mapping, after a forward pass that mutates
the host vmemmap (sets PKVM_PAGE_SHARED_OWNED and increments
host_share_guest_count) for every page in the range. The map's
return value is wrapped in WARN_ON() and otherwise discarded,
asserting that the call cannot fail.
WARN_ON() at nVHE EL2 panics, so this assertion is only correct if
the call genuinely cannot fail. kvm_pgtable_stage2_map() can fail
with -ENOMEM when the stage-2 walker exhausts the caller's
memcache, and the host controls the vcpu memcache via the topup
interface, so an under-provisioned share request would otherwise
turn a recoverable -ENOMEM into a fatal hyp panic.
Bound the worst-case walker allocation in the existing pre-check
pass so that kvm_pgtable_stage2_map() cannot fail at the call
site, using kvm_mmu_cache_min_pages() -- the same bound host EL1
uses for its own stage-2 maps. If the vcpu memcache holds fewer
pages, return -ENOMEM before any state mutation.
