KVM: arm64: initialize HCRX_EL2



ARMv8.7/9.2 adds a new hypervisor configuration register HCRX_EL2.
Initialize the register to a safe value (all fields 0), to be robust
against firmware that has not initialized it. This is also needed to
ensure that the register is reinitialized after a kexec by a future
kernel.

In addition, move SMPME setup over to the new flags, as it would
otherwise get overridden. It is safe to set the bit even if SME is not
(uniformly) supported, as it will write to a RES0 bit (having no
effect), and SME will be disabled by the cpufeature framework.
(Similar to how e.g. the API bit is handled in HCR_HOST_NVHE_FLAGS.)
