KVM: arm/arm64: Limit icache invalidation to prefetch aborts
We've so far eagerly invalidated the icache, no matter how the page was faulted in (data or prefetch abort). But we can easily track execution by setting the XN bits in the S2 page tables, get the prefetch abort at HYP and perform the icache invalidation at that time only. As for most VMs, the instruction working set is pretty small compared to the data set, this is likely to save some traffic (specially as the invalidation is broadcast).
