[PATCH v7 14/68] KVM: arm64: nv: Handle SPSR_EL2 specially

SPSR_EL2 needs special attention when running nested on ARMv8.3:

If taking an exception while running at vEL2 (actually EL1), the
HW will update the SPSR_EL1 register with the EL1 mode. We need
to track this in order to make sure that accesses to the virtual
view of SPSR_EL2 is correct.

To do so, we place an illegal value in SPSR_EL1.M, and patch it
accordingly if required when accessing it.
