[PATCH] KVM: arm64: Don't populate TPIDR_EL2 in finalise_el2()

When running with VHE, TPIDR_EL2 is only used for the percpu offset once
the ARM64_HAS_VIRT_HOST_EXTN capability has been detected, at which
point cpu_copy_el2regs() will populate its contents from TPIDR_EL1.
Remove the redundant initialisation of TPIDR_EL2 from finalise_el2().

I spotted this by inspection as part of an ill-fated (abandoned) attempt
at repurposing tpidr_elx for something else.
