In some architectural corner cases, AT instructions can generate an
exception, which KVM is not really ready to handle properly.
Teach the code to handle this situation gracefully.

This is a backport of the respective upstream patches to v4.9(.235).
James prepared and tested these already, but we were lacking the upstream
commit IDs so far.
I am sending this on his behalf, since he is off this week.

The original patches contained stable tags, but with a prerequisite
patch in v5.3. Patch 2/4 is a backport of this one (removing ARMv8.2 RAS
barriers, which are not supported in v4.9), patches 1/4 and 3/4
needed some massaging to apply and work on 4.9.

Cheers,
Andre.

  KVM: arm64: Defer guest entry when an asynchronous exception is pending
  KVM: arm64: Survive synchronous exceptions caused by AT instructions
  KVM: arm64: Set HCR_EL2.PTW to prevent AT taking synchronous exception
