All GCS operations at EL0 must happen on a page which is marked as having UnprivGCS access, including read operations. If a GCS operation attempts to access a page without this then it will generate a data abort with the GCS bit set in ESR_EL1.ISS2.
EL0 may validly generate such faults, for example due to copy on write which will cause the GCS data to be stored in a read only page with no GCS permissions until the actual copy happens. Since UnprivGCS allows both reads and writes to the GCS (though only through GCS operations) we need to ensure that the memory management subsystem handles GCS accesses as writes at all times. Do this by adding FAULT_FLAG_WRITE to any GCS page faults, adding handling to ensure that invalid cases are identfied as such early so the memory management core does not think they will succeed. The core cannot distinguish between VMAs which are generally writeable and VMAs which are only writeable through GCS operations.
EL1 may validly write to EL0 GCS for management purposes (eg, while initialising with cap tokens).
We also report any GCS faults in VMAs not marked as part of a GCS as access violations, causing a fault to be delivered to userspace if it attempts to do GCS operations outside a GCS.
