[PATCH 19/20] KVM: arm64: Raise PKVM_HYP_REQ_SPLIT on guest to host sharing

Pages shared by the guest with the host are annotated into the guest
stage-2. If the shared page is backed by a huge mapping, we need to
split it first.
Raise a PKVM_HYP_REQ_SPLIT for the host on the guest HVC MEM_SHARE, if a
block exists (-E2BIG) and replay the HVC (by rewinding the ELR).
At the moment, the guest HVC MEM_SHARE is single-page only. This means
unsharing is ensured to find a PTE-level mapping. However as this is
most likely be extended later, raise the same PKVM_HYP_REQ_SPLIT on the
guest HVC MEM_UNSHARE.
