KVM: arm/arm64: Move VGIC APR save/restore to vgic put/load
The APRs can only have bits set when the guest acknowledges an interrupt in the LR and can only have a bit cleared when the guest EOIs an interrupt in the LR. Therefore, if we have no LRs with any pending/active interrupts, the APR cannot change value and there is no need to clear it on every exit from the VM (hint: it will have already been cleared when we exited the guest the last time with the LRs all EOIed). The only case we need to take care of is when we migrate the VCPU away from a CPU or migrate a new VCPU onto a CPU, or when we return to userspace to capture the state of the VCPU for migration. To make sure this works, factor out the APR save/restore functionality into separate functions called from the VCPU (and by extension VGIC) put/load hooks.
