[PATCHv2 09/12] arm64/kvm: preserve host HCR_EL2 value

When restoring HCR_EL2 for the host, KVM uses HCR_HOST_VHE_FLAGS, which
is a constant value. This works today, as the host HCR_EL2 value is
always the same, but this will get in the way of supporting extensions
that require HCR_EL2 bits to be set conditionally for the host.

To allow such features to work without KVM having to explicitly handle
every possible host feature combination, this patch has KVM save/restore
the host HCR when switching to/from a guest HCR.

For __{activate,deactivate}_traps(), the HCR save/restore is made common
across the !VHE and VHE paths. As the host and guest HCR values must
have E2H set when VHE is in use, register redirection should always be
in effect at EL2, and this change should not adversely affect the VHE
code.

For the hyp TLB maintenance code, __tlb_switch_to_host_vhe() is updated
to toggle the TGE bit with a RMW sequence, as we already do in
__tlb_switch_to_guest_vhe().

The now unused HCR_HOST_VHE_FLAGS definition is removed.
