[PATCH] kvm: arm64: use BUG() instead of BUG_ON(1)

From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd at arndb.de>
The BUG_ON() macro adds a little bit of complexity over BUG(), and in
some cases this ends up confusing the compiler's control flow analysis
in a way that results in a warning. This one now shows up with clang-21:
arch/arm64/kvm/vgic/vgic-mmio.c:1094:3: error: variable 'len' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
1094 | BUG_ON(1);
Change both instances of BUG_ON(1) to a plain BUG() in the arm64 kvm
code, to avoid the false-positive warning.
