[PATCH v2 2/2] KVM: arm64: Bound used_lrs when flushing the pKVM hyp vCPU

flush_hyp_vcpu() copies the host vGIC state into the hyp's private vCPU
on every run. The vGIC list register save and restore use used_lrs as
their loop bound and expect it to stay within the number of implemented
list registers. While this is generally the case, flush_hyp_vcpu()
copies vgic_v3 verbatim and does not enforce this, so a value provided
by the host is used at EL2 to index vgic_lr[] and access ICH_LR<n>_EL2
(host -> EL2).
Fix by clamping used_lrs to the number of implemented list registers
after the copy, as the trusted path already does in
vgic_flush_lr_state().
Fixes: be66e67f1750 ("KVM: arm64: Use the pKVM hyp vCPU structure in handle___kvm_vcpu_run()")
