KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Introduce low level MSR accessor



kvmppc_get_msr() and kvmppc_set_msr_fast() serve as accessors for the
MSR. However because the MSR is kept in the shared regs they include a
conditional check for kvmppc_shared_big_endian() and endian conversion.

Within the Book3S HV specific code there are direct reads and writes of
shregs::msr. In preparation for Nested APIv2 these accesses need to be
replaced with accessor functions so it is possible to extend their
behavior. However, using the kvmppc_get_msr() and kvmppc_set_msr_fast()
functions is undesirable because it would introduce a conditional branch
and endian conversion that is not currently present.

kvmppc_set_msr_hv() already exists, it is used for the
kvmppc_ops::set_msr callback.

Introduce a low level accessor __kvmppc_{s,g}et_msr_hv() that simply
gets and sets shregs::msr. This will be extend for Nested APIv2 support.
