From: James Morse james.morse@arm.com
commit 58d6b15e9da5042a99c9c30ad725792e4569150e upstream.
cpu_pm_enter() calls the pm notifier chain with CPU_PM_ENTER, then if there is a failure: CPU_PM_ENTER_FAILED.
When KVM receives CPU_PM_ENTER it calls cpu_hyp_reset() which will return us to the hyp-stub. If we subsequently get a CPU_PM_ENTER_FAILED, KVM does nothing, leaving the CPU running with the hyp-stub, at odds with kvm_arm_hardware_enabled.
Add CPU_PM_ENTER_FAILED as a fallthrough for CPU_PM_EXIT, this reloads KVM based on kvm_arm_hardware_enabled. This is safe even if CPU_PM_ENTER never gets as far as KVM, as cpu_hyp_reinit() calls cpu_hyp_reset() to make sure the hyp-stub is loaded before reloading KVM.
