arm64: KVM: Device mappings should be execute-never
Since commit 2f6ea23f63cca ("arm64: KVM: Avoid marking pages as XN in Stage-2 if CTR_EL0.DIC is set"), KVM has stopped marking normal memory as execute-never at stage2 when the system supports D->I Coherency at the PoU. This avoids KVM taking a trap when the page is first executed, in order to clean it to PoU. The patch that added this change also wrapped PAGE_S2_DEVICE mappings up in this too. The upshot is, if your CPU caches support DIC ... you can execute devices. Revert the PAGE_S2_DEVICE change so PTE_S2_XN is always used directly.
