If it is enabled in HIDELEG, the guest gets the interrupt directly. As
the counters are virtualized, the host needs to get
the interrupt and inject it to the guest by setting the hvip bit.

Yes. It was supposed to be inside kvm_riscv_aia_enable. My bad.
I will fix it and send it v2.
We also should advertise sscofpmf to the guest only if ssaia is available
in the host. I will work on that too.
