[PATCH v12 02/11] KVM: arm64: Relax invariance of KVM_ARM_VCPU_POWER_OFF

Allow the value of KVM_ARM_VCPU_POWER_OFF to differ between calls to
KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT. Userspace can already change the state of the vCPU
through the KVM_SET_MP_STATE ioctl, so making the bit invariant seems
needlessly restrictive.
