ANDROID: KVM: arm64: Prevent HVC calls outside of the core kernel text Modules can easily wreak havoc in the hypervisor by calling into it randomly, making it very hard to understand what is going on. Given that limiting hypercalls to the core kernel is actually pretty easy (a simple comparaison with _text and _etext), let's implement that. This is made extra-complicated due to KASLR and the disjointed VA spaces (you can't just refer to _text, as this results in a relative reference...).

BEST: Make all of your changes to upstream Linux. If appropriate, backport to the stable releases. These patches will be merged automatically in the corresponding common kernels. If the patch is already in upstream Linux, post a backport of the patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()
require an in-tree modular driver that uses the symbol -- so include the new driver or changes to an existing driver in the same patchset as the export.LESS GOOD: Develop your patches out-of-tree (from an upstream Linux point-of-view). Unless these are fixing an Android-specific bug, these are very unlikely to be accepted unless they have been coordinated with kernel-team@android.com. If you want to proceed, post a patch that conforms to the patch requirements below.
