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.
