KVM: arm64: nvhe: Save the SPE context early

The nVHE KVM hyp drains and disables the SPE buffer, before
entering the guest, as the EL1&0 translation regime
is going to be loaded with that of the guest.

But this operation is performed way too late, because :
  - The owning translation regime of the SPE buffer
    is transferred to EL2. (MDCR_EL2_E2PB == 0)
  - The guest Stage1 is loaded.

Thus the flush could use the host EL1 virtual address,
but use the EL2 translations instead of host EL1, for writing
out any cached data.

Fix this by moving the SPE buffer handling early enough.
The restore path is doing the right thing.
