KVM: arm64: Define our own swab32() to avoid a uapi static inline



KVM uses swab32() when mediating GIC MMIO accesses if the GICV is badly
aligned, and the host and guest differ in endianness.

arm64 doesn't provide a __arch_swab32(), so __fswab32() is always backed
by the macro implementation that the compiler reduces to a single
instruction. But the static-inline causes problems for KVM if the compiler
chooses not to inline this function, it may not be located in the
__hyp_text where __vgic_v2_perform_cpuif_access() needs it.

Create our own __kvm_swab32() macro that calls ___constant_swab32()
directly. This way we know it will always be inlined.
