[PATCH v4 4/8] KVM: arm64: Add guard pages for pKVM (protected nVHE) hypervisor stack

Maps the stack pages in the flexible private VA range and allocates
guard pages below the stack as unbacked VA space. The stack is aligned
to twice its size to aid overflow detection (implemented in a subsequent
patch in the series).

Changes in v4:
  - Replace IS_ERR_OR_NULL check with IS_ERR check now that
    pkvm_alloc_private_va_range() returns an error for null
    pointer, per Fuad

Changes in v3:
  - Handle null ptr in IS_ERR_OR_NULL checks, per Mark
