Exploitability: 2.0 / Impact: 6.0

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: Take the SRCU lock for page table walks in fault injection and AT emulation
walk_s1() and kvm_walk_nested_s2() expect to be called while holding
kvm->srcu to guard against memslot changes. While this is generally
the case, __kvm_at_s12() and __kvm_find_s1_desc_level() call into the
respective walkers without taking kvm->srcu.
Fix by acquiring kvm->srcu prior to the table walk in both instances.
