KVM: arm64: Add exit to userspace on {LD,ST}64B* outside of memslots
The main use of {LD,ST}64B* is to talk to a device, which is hopefully
directly assigned to the guest and requires no additional handling.
However, this does not preclude a VMM from exposing a virtual device
to the guest, and to allow 64 byte accesses as part of the programming
interface. A direct consequence of this is that we need to be able
to forward such access to userspace.
Given that such a contraption is very unlikely to ever exist, we choose
to offer a limited service: userspace gets (as part of a new exit reason)
the ESR, the IPA, and that's it. It is fully expected to handle the full
semantics of the instructions, deal with ACCDATA, the return values and
increment PC. Much fun.
A canonical implementation can also simply inject an abort and be done
with it. Frankly, don't try to do anything else unless you have time
to waste.
