stage2_pte_cacheable() tries to figure out whether the mapping installed
in its 'pte' parameter is cacheable or not. Unfortunately, it fails
miserably because it extracts the memory attributes from the entry using
FIELD_GET(), which returns the attributes shifted down to bit 0, but then
compares this with the unshifted value generated by the PAGE_S2_MEMATTR()
macro.
A direct consequence of this bug is that cache maintenance is silently
skipped, which in turn causes 32-bit guests to crash early on when their
set/way maintenance is trapped but not emulated correctly.
Fix the broken masks by avoiding the use of FIELD_GET() altogether.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
