[RESEND PATCH v5 2/5] arm64/crash_core: Export TCR_EL1.T1SZ in vmcoreinfo

[Bhupesh Sharma]

vabits_actual variable on arm64 indicates the actual VA space size,
and allows a single binary to support both 48-bit and 52-bit VA
spaces.

If the ARMv8.2-LVA optional feature is present, and we are running
with a 64KB page size; then it is possible to use 52-bits of address
space for both userspace and kernel addresses. However, any kernel
binary that supports 52-bit must also be able to fall back to 48-bit
at early boot time if the hardware feature is not present.

Since TCR_EL1.T1SZ indicates the size offset of the memory region
addressed by TTBR1_EL1 (and hence can be used for determining the
vabits_actual value) it makes more sense to export the same in
vmcoreinfo rather than vabits_actual variable, as the name of the
variable can change in future kernel versions, but the architectural
constructs like TCR_EL1.T1SZ can be used better to indicate intended
specific fields to user-space.

User-space utilities like makedumpfile and crash-utility, need to
read/write this value from/to vmcoreinfo for determining if a virtual
address lies in the linear map range.

The user-space computation for determining whether an address lies in
the linear map range is the same as we have in kernel-space:

  #define __is_lm_address(addr)	(!(((u64)addr) & BIT(vabits_actual - 1)))

I have sent out user-space patches for makedumpfile and crash-utility
to add features for obtaining vabits_actual value from TCR_EL1.T1SZ (see
[0] and [1]).

Akashi reported that he was able to use this patchset and the user-space
changes to get user-space working fine with the 52-bit kernel VA
changes (see [2]).
