KVM: arm64/sve: System register context switch and access support



This patch adds the necessary support for context switching ZCR_EL1
for each vcpu.

ZCR_EL1 is trapped alongside the FPSIMD/SVE registers, so it makes
sense for it to be handled as part of the guest FPSIMD/SVE context
for context switch purposes instead of handling it as a general
system register.  This means that it can be switched in lazily at
the appropriate time.  No effort is made to track host context for
this register, since SVE requires VHE: thus the hosts's value for
this register lives permanently in ZCR_EL2 and does not alias the
guest's value at any time.

The Hyp switch and fpsimd context handling code is extended
appropriately.

Accessors are added in sys_regs.c to expose the SVE system
registers and ID register fields.  Because these need to be
conditionally visible based on the guest configuration, they are
implemented separately for now rather than by use of the generic
system register helpers.  This may be abstracted better later on
when/if there are more features requiring this model.

ID_AA64ZFR0_EL1 is RO-RAZ for MRS/MSR when SVE is disabled for the
guest, but for compatibility with non-SVE aware KVM implementations
the register should not be enumerated at all for KVM_GET_REG_LIST
in this case.  For consistency we also reject ioctl access to the
register.  This ensures that a non-SVE-enabled guest looks the same
to userspace, irrespective of whether the kernel KVM implementation
supports SVE.
