[PATCH v5 04/15] KVM: arm64: Add KVM_REQ_RELOAD_STAGE2

From: Leonardo Bras <leo.bras at arm.com>

Add a vcpu request to exit the guest, reload stage-2, and come back
to the guest.

This will be used by subsequent patches that enable S2 HAFDBS and
HDBSS, as they may need to change VTCR bits for enabling/disabling
the feature when the vcpus are still running.
