[RFC v2 1/9] KVM: ARM: VGIC: fix multiple injection of level sensitive forwarded IRQ

Fix multiple injection of level sensitive forwarded IRQs.
With current code, the second injection fails since the state bitmaps
are not reset (process_maintenance is not called anymore).
New implementation consists in fully bypassing the vgic state
management for forwarded IRQ (checks are ignored in
vgic_update_irq_pending). This obviously assumes the forwarded IRQ is
injected from kernel side.

It was attempted to reset the states in __kvm_vgic_sync_hwstate, checking
the emptied LR of forwarded IRQ. However surprisingly this solution does
not seem to work. Some times, a new forwarded IRQ injection is observed
while the LR of the previous instance was not observed as empty.

v1 -> v2:
- fix vgic state bypass in vgic_queue_hwirq
