It is possible to take a stage-2 permission fault on a page larger than
PAGE_SIZE. For example, when running a guest backed by 2M HugeTLB, KVM
eagerly maps at the largest possible block size. When dirty logging is
enabled on a memslot, KVM does *not* eagerly split these 2M stage-2
mappings and instead clears the write bit on the pte.
Since dirty logging is always performed at PAGE_SIZE granularity, KVM
lazily splits these 2M block mappings down to PAGE_SIZE in the stage-2
fault handler. This operation must be done under the write lock. Since
commit
fa4005d9aada ("KVM: arm64: Add fast path to handle permission
relaxation during dirty logging"), the stage-2 fault handler
conditionally takes the read lock on permission faults with dirty
logging enabled. To that end, it is possible to split a 2M block mapping
while only holding the read lock.
The problem is demonstrated by running kvm_page_table_test with 2M
anonymous HugeTLB, which splats like so:

Fix the issue by only acquiring the read lock if the guest faulted on a
PAGE_SIZE granule w/ dirty logging enabled. Add a WARN to catch locking
bugs in future changes.
