[PATCH] KVM: arm64: Don't miss pending interrupts for suspended vCPU

In order to properly emulate the WFI instruction, KVM reads back
ICH_VMCR_EL2 and enables doorbells for GICv4. These preparations are
necessary in order to recognize pending interrupts in
kvm_arch_vcpu_runnable() and return to the guest. Until recently, this
work was done by kvm_arch_vcpu_{blocking,unblocking}(). Since commit
6109c5a6ab7f ("KVM: arm64: Move vGIC v4 handling for WFI out arch
callback hook"), these callbacks were gutted and superseded by
kvm_vcpu_wfi().
It is important to note that KVM implements PSCI CPU_SUSPEND calls as
a WFI within the guest. However, the implementation calls directly into
kvm_vcpu_halt(), which skips the needed work done in kvm_vcpu_wfi()
to detect pending interrupts. Fix the issue by calling the WFI helper.
