KVM: arm64: Store vcpu on the stack during __guest_enter()
KVM uses tpidr_el2 as its private vcpu register, which makes sense for non-vhe world switch as only KVM can access this register. This means vhe Linux has to use tpidr_el1, which KVM has to save/restore as part of the host context. If the SDEI handler code runs behind KVMs back, it mustn't access any per-cpu variables. To allow this on systems with vhe we need to make the host use tpidr_el2, saving KVM from save/restoring it. __guest_enter() stores the host_ctxt on the stack, do the same with the vcpu.
