[PATCH v4 05/40] KVM: arm64: Move HCR_INT_OVERRIDE to default HCR_EL2 guest flag

From: Shih-Wei Li <shihwei at cs.columbia.edu>

We always set the IMO and FMO bits in the HCR_EL2 when running the
guest, regardless if we use the vgic or not.  By moving these flags to
HCR_GUEST_FLAGS we can avoid one of the extra save/restore operations of
HCR_EL2 in the world switch code, and we can also soon get rid of the
other one.

This is safe, because even though the IMO and FMO bits control both
taking the interrupts to EL2 and remapping ICC_*_EL1 to ICV_*_EL1 when
executed at EL1, as long as we ensure that these bits are clear when
running the EL1 host, we're OK, because we reset the HCR_EL2 to only
have the HCR_RW bit set when returning to EL1 on non-VHE systems.
