We currently walk the hypervisor stage-1 page-table towards the end of hyp init in nVHE protected mode and adjust the host page ownership attributes in its stage-2 in order to get a consistent state from both point of views. The walk is done on the entire hyp VA space, and expects to only ever find page-level mappings. While this expectation is reasonable in the half of hyp VA space that maps memory with a fixed offset (see the loop in pkvm_create_mappings_locked()), it can be incorrect in the other half where nothing prevents the usage of block mappings. For instance, on systems where memory is physically aligned at an address that happens to maps to a PMD aligned VA in the hyp_vmemmap, kvm_pgtable_hyp_map() will install block mappings when backing the hyp_vmemmap, which will later cause finalize_host_mappings() to fail. Furthermore, it should be noted that all pages backing the hyp_vmemmap are also mapped in the 'fixed offset range' of the hypervisor, which implies that finalize_host_mappings() will walk both aliases and update the host stage-2 attributes twice. The order in which this happens is unpredictable, though, since the hyp VA layout is highly dependent on the position of the idmap page, hence resulting in a fragile mess at best. In order to fix all of this, let's restrict the finalization walk to only cover memory regions in the 'fixed-offset range' of the hyp VA space and nothing else. This not only fixes a correctness issue, but will also result in a slighlty faster hyp initialization overall.
