KVM: arm64: Defer saving/restoring 32-bit sysregs to vcpu load/put
When running a 32-bit VM (EL1 in AArch32), the AArch32 system registers can be deferred to vcpu load/put on VHE systems because neither the host kernel nor host userspace uses these registers. Note that we can't save DBGVCR32_EL2 conditionally based on the state of the debug dirty flag on VHE after this change, because during vcpu_load() we haven't calculated a valid debug flag yet, and when we've restored the register during vcpu_load() we also have to save it during vcpu_put(). This means that we'll always restore/save the register for VHE on load/put, but luckily vcpu load/put are called rarely, so saving an extra register unconditionally shouldn't significantly hurt performance. We can also not defer saving FPEXC32_32 because this register only holds a guest-valid value for 32-bit guests during the exit path when the guest has used FPSIMD registers and restored the register in the early assembly handler from taking the EL2 fault, and therefore we have to check if fpsimd is enabled for the guest in the exit path and save the register then, for both VHE and non-VHE guests.
