[PATCH v6 14/15] KVM: arm64: Fold redundant exit code checks out of fixup_guest_exit()

The entire tail of fixup_guest_exit() is contained in if statements
of the form if (x && *exit_code == ARM_EXCEPTION_TRAP).  As a result,
we can check just once and bail out of the function early, allowing
the remaining if conditions to be simplified.

The only awkward case is where *exit_code is changed to
ARM_EXCEPTION_EL1_SERROR in the case of an illegal GICv2 CPU
interface access: in that case, the GICv3 trap handling code is
skipped using a goto.  This avoids pointlessly evaluating the
static branch check for the GICv3 case, even though we can't have
vgic_v2_cpuif_trap and vgic_v3_cpuif_trap true simultaneously
unless we have a GICv3 and GICv2 on the host: that sounds stupid,
but I haven't satisfied myself that it can't happen.

No functional change.

Changes since v5:

Requested by Marc Zyngier:

 * Move "goto exit" to the end of the data abort handling code under
   gicv2 cpuif trap handling, since the gicv3-specific handling is only
   for sysreg traps.
