[PATCH v2 12/36] KVM: arm64: gic-v5: Add emulation for ICC_IAFFIDR_EL1 accesses

GICv5 doesn't provide an ICV_IAFFIDR_EL1 or ICH_IAFFIDR_EL2 for
providing the IAFFID to the guest. A guest access to the
ICC_IAFFIDR_EL1 must therefore be trapped and emulated to avoid the
guest accessing the host's ICC_IAFFIDR_EL1.

The virtual IAFFID is provided to the guest when it reads
ICC_IAFFIDR_EL1 (which always traps back to the hypervisor). Writes are
rightly ignored. KVM treats the GICv5 VPEID, the virtual IAFFID, and
the vcpu_id as the same, and so the vcpu_id is returned.

The trapping for the ICC_IAFFIDR_EL1 is always enabled when in a guest
context.
