[PATCH v3] RISC-V: KVM: Remove scounteren initialization

[Atish Patra]

Scounteren CSR controls the direct access the hpmcounters and cycle/
instret/time from the userspace. It's the supervisor's responsibility
to set it up correctly for it's user space. They hypervisor doesn't
need to decide the policy on behalf of the supervisor.
