[PATCH 4.11 054/150] arm: KVM: Allow unaligned accesses at HYP

Show all headers | View raw

4.11-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com>

commit 33b5c38852b29736f3b472dd095c9a18ec22746f upstream.

We currently have the HSCTLR.A bit set, trapping unaligned accesses
at HYP, but we're not really prepared to deal with it.

Since the rest of the kernel is pretty happy about that, let's follow
its example and set HSCTLR.A to zero. Modern CPUs don't really care.
