[PATCH 2/2] KVM: arm64: Stop clobbering x0 for HVC_SOFT_RESTART

From: Andrew Scull <ascull at google.com>

HVC_SOFT_RESTART is given values for x0-2 that it should installed
before exiting to the new address so should not set x0 to stub HVC
success or failure code.

Fixes: af42f20480bf1 ("arm64: hyp-stub: Zero x0 on successful stub handling")
