[Xen-devel] [PATCH] Don't clear HCR_VM bit when updating VTTBR.

[Jun Sun <jsun@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently function p2m_restore_state() would clear HCR_VM bit, i.e.,
disabling stage2 translation, before updating VTTBR register. After
some research and talking to ARM support, I got confirmed that this is not
necessary. We are currently working on a new platform that would need this
to be removed.

The patch is tested on FVP foundation model.
