arm64: KVM: Add workaround for Cortex-A57 erratum 834220
Cortex-A57 parts up to r1p2 can misreport Stage 2 translation faults when a Stage 1 permission fault or device alignment fault should have been reported. This patch implements the workaround (which is to validate that the Stage-1 translation actually succeeds) by using code patching.
