KVM: arm64: Return -EINVAL for an empty SMCCC filter range at base 0

Browse source

kvm_smccc_set_filter() only rejects a range if its inclusive end,
base + nr_functions - 1, is below base. That catches an empty range
(nr_functions == 0) at every nonzero base, but at base 0 the end wraps
to U32_MAX and KVM tries to insert [0, U32_MAX], which overlaps the
reserved Arm Architecture Calls ranges. KVM_ARM_VM_SMCCC_FILTER then
returns -EEXIST instead of the -EINVAL that the smccc_filter selftest
expects for an empty range.

Reject a zero function count explicitly.

Tested with a userspace reproducer on an arm64 VHE host under QEMU TCG:
EEXIST before, EINVAL after.
