[PATCH 54/89] KVM: arm64: Reduce host/shadow vcpu state copying

From: Marc Zyngier <maz at kernel.org>
When running with pKVM enabled, protected guests run with a fixed CPU
configuration and therefore features such as hardware debug and SVE are
unavailable and their state does not need to be copied from the host
structures on each flush operation. Although non-protected guests do
require the host and shadow structures to be kept in-sync with each
other, we can defer writing back to the host to an explicit sync
hypercall, rather than doing it after every vCPU run.
