    KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Explicitly disable HPT operations on radix guests · 891f1ebf
    Paul Mackerras authored
    This adds code to make sure that we don't try to access the
    non-existent HPT for a radix guest using the htab file for the VM
    in debugfs, a file descriptor obtained using the KVM_PPC_GET_HTAB_FD
    ioctl, or via the KVM_PPC_RESIZE_HPT_{PREPARE,COMMIT} ioctls.
    
    At present nothing bad happens if userspace does access these
    interfaces on a radix guest, mostly because kvmppc_hpt_npte()
    gives 0 for a radix guest, which in turn is because 1 << -4
    comes out as 0 on POWER processors.  However, that relies on
    undefined behaviour, so it is better to be explicit about not
    accessing the HPT for a radix guest.
