[PATCH] RISC-V: KVM: Fix SBI_FWFT_POINTER_MASKING_PMLEN algorithm

The implementation of SBI_FWFT_POINTER_MASKING_PMLEN from commit
aa04d131b88b ("RISC-V: KVM: Add support for SBI_FWFT_POINTER_MASKING_PMLEN")
was based on a draft of the SBI 3.0 specification, and is not compliant
with the ratified version.

Update the algorithm to be compliant. Specifically, do not fall back to
a pointer masking mode with a larger PMLEN if the mode with the
requested PMLEN is unsupported by the hardware.

I saw that the RFC version of this patch already made it into
riscv_kvm_queue, but it needs an update for ratified SBI 3.0. Feel free
to squash this into the original commit, or I can send a replacement v2
patch if you prefer.
