In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

KVM: arm64: nv: Fix null ptr deref on nested wp/unmap, teardown race

Commit 7270cc9157f4 ("KVM: arm64: nv: Handle VNCR_EL2 invalidation from MMU
notifiers") introduced VNCR_EL2 invalidation in both kvm_nested_s2_unmap()
and kvm_nested_s2_wp().

However at the point of this being performed concurrent stage 2 teardown of
a nested guest can cause kvm->arch.mmu.pgt to be set to NULL.

This happens in kvm_flush_shadow_all() -> kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all() ->
kvm_free_stage2_pgd() and is performed under the kvm->mmu_lock.

Commit ec14c272408a ("KVM: arm64: nv: Unmap/flush shadow stage 2 page
tables") introduced the teardown of the entire nested MMU range, which then
invokes stage2_apply_range() with resched=true:

mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
  -> ... -> kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
    -> kvm_mmu_unmap_gfn_range()
      -> kvm_unmap_gfn_range()
        -> kvm_nested_s2_unmap()
          -> kvm_stage2_unmap_range()
            -> __unmap_stage2_range()
                -> stage2_apply_range()

This means that stage2_apply_range() can drop the kvm->mmu_lock and thus
concurrent progress can be made in lockstep with
kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all().

If kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all() advances ahead of stage2_apply_range() and
completes its operation it guarantees a NULL pointer deref.

Since kvm_free_stage2_pgd() is performed under the kvm->mmu_lock this will
either be observed NULL or not and serialised against
kvm_free_stage2_pgd().

Resolve the issue by abstracting the invalidation to a new function,
kvm_invalidate_vncr_ipa_all(), and check that the pgt is non-NULL before
dereferencing it.
