CVE-2023-53319

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

KVM: arm64: Handle kvm_arm_init failure correctly in finalize_pkvm

Currently there is no synchronisation between finalize_pkvm() and
kvm_arm_init() initcalls. The finalize_pkvm() proceeds happily even if
kvm_arm_init() fails resulting in the following warning on all the CPUs
and eventually a HYP panic:

  | kvm [1]: IPA Size Limit: 48 bits
  | kvm [1]: Failed to init hyp memory protection
  | kvm [1]: error initializing Hyp mode: -22

Fix it by checking for the successfull initialisation of kvm_arm_init()
in finalize_pkvm() before proceeding any futher.
