KVM: arm64: Sync SPSR_EL1 when injecting an exception into a pVM

Browse source

When pKVM injects a synchronous exception into a protected guest, it
re-enters without restoring the guest's EL1 sysregs and writes the EL1
exception registers to hardware by hand: ESR_EL1 and ELR_EL1, but not
SPSR_EL1. enter_exception64() sets SPSR_EL1 (the interrupted PSTATE)
only in memory, so the guest's handler reads a stale SPSR_EL1 and
restores the wrong PSTATE on eret.

Write SPSR_EL1 alongside the other exception registers.
