[RFC PATCH 2/2] kvm/arm64: expose hypercall_forwarding capability

[Heyi Guo <guoheyi@huawei.com>]

Add new KVM capability "KVM_CAP_FORWARD_HYPERCALL" for user space to
probe whether KVM supports forwarding hypercall.

The capability should be enabled by user space explicitly, for we
don't want user space application to deal with unexpected hypercall
exits. We also use an additional argument to pass exception bit mask,
to request KVM to forward all hypercalls except the classes specified
in the bit mask.

Currently only PSCI can be set as exception, so that we can still keep
consistent with the old PSCI processing flow.
