[PATCH v5 3/8] arm64/fpsimd: Have KVM explicitly say which FP registers to save

In order to avoid needlessly saving and restoring the guest registers KVM
relies on the host FPSMID code to save the guest registers when we context
switch away from the guest. This is done by binding the KVM guest state to
the CPU on top of the task state that was originally there, then carefully
managing the TIF_SVE flag for the task to cause the host to save the full
SVE state when needed regardless of the needs of the host task. This works
well enough but isn't terribly direct about what is going on and makes it
much more complicated to try to optimise what we're doing with the SVE
register state.
Let's instead have KVM pass in the register state it wants saving when it
binds to the CPU. We introduce a new FP_STATE_CURRENT for use
during normal task binding to indicate that we should base our
decisions on the current task. This should not be used when
actually saving. Ideally we might want to use a separate enum for
the type to save but this enum and the enum values would then
need to be named which has problems with clarity and ambiguity.
In order to ease any future debugging that might be required this patch
does not actually update any of the decision making about what to save,
it merely starts tracking the new information and warns if the requested
state is not what we would otherwise have decided to save.
