[PATCH 2/9] arm64: alternatives: kvm: prepare for cap changes

The KVM patching callbacks use cpus_have_final_cap() internally within
has_vhe(), and subsequent patches will make it invalid to call
cpus_have_final_cap() before alternatives patching has completed, and
will mean that cpus_have_const_cap() will always fall back to dynamic
checks prior to alternatives patching.
In preparation for said change, this patch modifies the KVM patching
callbacks to use cpus_have_cap() directly. This is not subject to
patching, and will dynamically check the cpu_hwcaps array, which is
functionally equivalent to the existing behaviour.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
