[PATCH v16 04/20] arm64: kvm: Move lr save/restore from do_el2_call into EL1

From: James Morse <james.morse at arm.com>

Today the 'hvc' calling kvm or the hyp-stub is expected to preserve all
registers. Kvm saves/restores the registers it needs on the EL2 stack using
do_el2_call. The hyp-stub has no stack, later patches need at least one
register they can use.

Allow theses calls to clobber the link register, and add code to
save/restore this register at the call sites.
