We have some special handling for VPIPT I-cache in critical parts
of the cache and TLB maintenance. Remove it.

- * If the host is running at EL1 and we have a VPIPT I-cache,

- * a page that was previously mapped in the guest and then needs
- * to invalidate the guest view of the I-cache for that page
- * from EL1. To solve this, we invalidate the entire I-cache when
- * unmapping a page from a guest if we have a VPIPT I-cache but
- * the host is running at EL1. As above, we could do better if
- * we had the VA.
- *
- * The moral of this story is: if you have a VPIPT I-cache, then
- * you should be running with VHE enabled.
