[PATCH] KVM: arm64: Synchronize SMEN on vcpu schedule out

From: Nianyao Tang <tangnianyao at huawei.com>

If we have VHE and need to reenable SME for host in
kvm_arch_vcpu_put_fp, CPACR.SMEN is modified from 0 to 1. Trap
control for reading SVCR is modified from enable to disable.
Synchronization is needed before reading SVCR later in
fpsimd_save, or it may cause sync exception which can not be
handled by host.
