KVM: arm64: Move HCRX_EL2 switch to load/put on VHE systems
Although the nVHE behaviour requires HCRX_EL2 to be switched
on each switch between host and guest, there is nothing in
this register that would affect a VHE host.
It is thus possible to save/restore this register on load/put
on VHE systems, avoiding unnecessary sysreg access on the hot
path. Additionally, it avoids unnecessary traps when running
with NV.
To achieve this, simply move the read/writes to the *_common()
helpers, which are called on load/put on VHE, and more eagerly
on nVHE.
