Shuo A Liu e587f029de hv: Add severity check against SOS hypercalls
Virtual interrupts injection and memory mapping operations can impact
target VM. By design, these type of operations from lower severity VM
to higher severity VM should be blocked by the hypervisor.

While the hypercalls are the interface between SOS VM and the
hypervisor, severity checks can be implemented at the beginning of
hypercalls needed.

Added severity checks in below hypercalls:
  * hcall_set_vm_memory_regions()
  * hcall_notify_ioreq_finish()
  * hcall_set_irqline()
  * hcall_inject_msi()
  * hcall_write_protect_page()

ACRN Hypervisor
###############

The open source `Project ACRN`_ defines a device hypervisor reference stack and
an architecture for running multiple software subsystems, managed securely, on
a consolidated system by means of a virtual machine manager. It also defines a
reference framework implementation for virtual device emulation, called the
"ACRN Device Model".

The ACRN Hypervisor is a Type 1 reference hypervisor stack, running directly on
the bare-metal hardware, and is suitable for a variety of IoT and embedded
device solutions. The ACRN hypervisor addresses the gap that currently exists
between datacenter hypervisors, and hard partitioning hypervisors. The ACRN
hypervisor architecture partitions the system into different functional
domains, with carefully selected guest OS sharing optimizations for IoT and
embedded devices.

You can find out more about Project ACRN on the `Project ACRN documentation`_
website.
