KVM: arm: plug potential guest hardware debug leakage
Hardware debugging in guests is not intercepted currently, it means that a malicious guest can bring down the entire machine by writing to the debug registers. This patch enable trapping of all debug registers, preventing the guests to access the debug registers. This includes access to the debug mode(DBGDSCR) in the guest world all the time which could otherwise mess with the host state. Reads return 0 and writes are ignored (RAZ_WI). The result is the guest cannot detect any working hardware based debug support. As debug exceptions are still routed to the guest normal debug using software based breakpoints still works. To support debugging using hardware registers we need to implement a debug register aware world switch as well as special trapping for registers that may affect the host state.
