[PATCH v2 2/2] KVM/arm: enable enhanced armv7 fp/simd lazy switch

This patch enhances current lazy vfp/simd hardware switch. In addition to
current lazy switch, it tracks vfp/simd hardware state with a vcpu 
lazy flag. 

vcpu lazy flag is set on guest access and trap to vfp/simd hardware switch 
handler. On vm-enter if lazy flag is set skip trap enable and saving 
host fpexc. On vm-exit if flag is set skip hardware context switch
and return to host with guest context.

On vcpu_put check if vcpu lazy flag is set, and execute a hardware context 
switch to restore host.
