[PATCH 3/7] KVM: arm/arm64: vgic-v2: Always resample level interrupts

When reading back from the list registers, we need to perform
two actions for level interrupts:
1) clear the soft-pending bit if the interrupt is not pending
anymore *in the list register*
2) resample the line level and propagate it to the pending state
But these two actions linked, and we should *always* resample
the line level, no matter what state is in the list register.
Otherwise, we may end-up injecting spurious interrupts that
have been already retired.
