KVM: arm64: Skip more of the SError vaxorcism During __guest_exit() we need to consume any SError left pending by the guest so it doesn't contaminate the host. With v8.2 we use the ESB-instruction. For systems without v8.2, we use dsb+isb and unmask SError. We do this on every guest exit. Use the same dsb+isr_el1 trick, this lets us know if an SError is pending after the dsb, allowing us to skip the isb and self-synchronising PSTATE write if its not. This means SError remains masked during KVM's world-switch, so any SError that occurs during this time is reported by the host, instead of causing a hyp-panic. As we're benchmarking this code lets polish the layout. If you give gcc likely()/unlikely() hints in an if() condition, it shuffles the generated assembly so that the likely case is immediately after the branch. Lets do the same here.
