[PATCH v3 2/2] arm/arm64: KVM: Support KVM_CAP_READONLY_MEM

When userspace loads code and data in a read-only memory regions, KVM
needs to be able to handle this on arm and arm64.  Specifically this is
used when running code directly from a read-only flash device; the
common scenario is a UEFI blob loaded with the -bios option in QEMU.

Note that the MMIO exit on writes to a read-only memory is ABI and can
be used to emulate block-erase style flash devices.

Changelog[v3]:
 - Remove the check for fault_status != FSC_FAULT in the I/O memory
   abort section, since we now do support permission faults on I/O
   regions.  Reported-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel at linaro.org>
Changelog[v2]:
 - None
