arm64: KVM: Add support for VPIPT I-caches 

A VPIPT I-cache has two main properties:

1. Lines allocated into the cache are tagged by VMID and a lookup can
   only hit lines that were allocated with the current VMID.

2. I-cache invalidation from EL1/0 only invalidates lines that match the
   current VMID of the CPU doing the invalidation.

This can cause issues with non-VHE configurations, where the host runs
at EL1 and wants to invalidate I-cache entries for a guest running with
a different VMID. VHE is not affected, because the host runs at EL2 and
I-cache invalidation applies as expected.

This patch solves the problem by invalidating the I-cache when unmapping
a page at stage 2 on a system with a VPIPT I-cache but not running with
VHE enabled. Hopefully this is an obscure enough configuration that the
overhead isn't anything to worry about, although it does mean that the
by-range I-cache invalidation currently performed when mapping at stage
2 can be elided on such systems, because the I-cache will be clean for
the guest VMID following a rollover event.

/*
* If the host is running at EL1 and we have a VPIPT I-cache,
* then we must perform I-cache maintenance at EL2 in order for
* it to have an effect on the guest. Since the guest cannot hit
* I-cache lines allocated with a different VMID, we don't need
* to worry about junk out of guest reset (we nuke the I-cache on
* VMID rollover), but we do need to be careful when remapping
* executable pages for the same guest. This can happen when KSM
* takes a CoW fault on an executable page, copies the page into
* a page that was previously mapped in the guest and then needs
* to invalidate the guest view of the I-cache for that page
* from EL1. To solve this, we invalidate the entire I-cache when
* unmapping a page from a guest if we have a VPIPT I-cache but
* the host is running at EL1. As above, we could do better if
* we had the VA.
*
* The moral of this story is: if you have a VPIPT I-cache, then
* you should be running with VHE enabled.
