Hrmpf so this makes me realize we have a problem here, not really caused
by your patch though.

Specifically, calling kvm_pgtable_stage2_set_owner() can lead to
overriding valid mappings with invalid mappings, which is effectively an
unmap operation. In this case we should issue CMOs when unmapping a
cacheable page to ensure it is clean to the PoC, like the
kvm_pgtable_stage2_unmap() does.

Note that you patch is already an improvement over the current state of
things, because calling stage2_pte_cacheable(pgt, new),
kvm_pte_follow(new, mm_ops) and friends is bogus when 'new' is invalid
...

Thanks,
Quentin
