[PATCH v5 02/34] arm64: KVM: Move lr save/restore to do_el2_call

At the moment, we only save/restore lr if on VHE, as we rely only
the EL1 code to have preserved it in the non-VHE case.

As we're about to get rid of the latter, let's move the save/restore
code to the do_el2_call macro, unifying both code paths.
