KVM/arm64 updates for 6.4

- Numerous fixes for the pathological lock inversion issue that
  plagued KVM/arm64 since... forever.

- New framework allowing SMCCC-compliant hypercalls to be forwarded
  to userspace, hopefully paving the way for some more features
  being moved to VMMs rather than be implemented in the kernel.

- Large rework of the timer code to allow a VM-wide offset to be
  applied to both virtual and physical counters as well as a
  per-timer, per-vcpu offset that complements the global one.
  This last part allows the NV timer code to be implemented on
  top.

- A small set of fixes to make sure that we don't change anything
  affecting the EL1&0 translation regime just after having having
  taken an exception to EL2 until we have executed a DSB. This
  ensures that speculative walks started in EL1&0 have completed.

- The usual selftest fixes and improvements.
