Commit a45f41d754e0 ("KVM: arm64: Add {get,set}_user for
PM{C,I}NTEN{SET,CLR}, PMOVS{SET,CLR}") changed KVM_SET_ONE_REG to update
the mentioned registers in a way matching with the behavior of guest
register writes. This is a breaking change of a UAPI though the new
semantics looks cleaner and VMMs are not prepared for this.
Firecracker, QEMU, and crosvm perform migration by listing registers
with KVM_GET_REG_LIST, getting their values with KVM_GET_ONE_REG and
setting them with KVM_SET_ONE_REG. This algorithm assumes
KVM_SET_ONE_REG restores the values retrieved with KVM_GET_ONE_REG
without any alteration. However, bit operations added by the earlier
commit do not preserve the values retried with KVM_GET_ONE_REG and
potentially break migration.
Remove the bit operations that alter the values retrieved with
KVM_GET_ONE_REG.
