When running a 32bit guest under a 64bit hypervisor, the ARMv8
architecture defines a mapping of the 32bit registers in the 64bit
space. This includes banked registers that are being demultiplexed
over the 64bit ones.
On exceptions caused by an operation involving a 32bit register, the
HW exposes the register number in the ESR_EL2 register. It was so
far understood that SW had to distinguish between AArch32 and AArch64
accesses (based on the current AArch32 mode and register number).
It turns out that I misinterpreted the ARM ARM, and the clue is in
D1.20.1: "For some exceptions, the exception syndrome given in the
ESR_ELx identifies one or more register numbers from the issued
instruction that generated the exception. Where the exception is
taken from an Exception level using AArch32 these register numbers
give the AArch64 view of the register."
Which means that the HW is already giving us the translated version,
and that we shouldn't try to interpret it at all (for example, doing
an MMIO operation from the IRQ mode using the LR register leads to
very unexpected behaviours).
The fix is thus not to perform a call to vcpu_reg32() at all from
vcpu_reg(), and use whatever register number is supplied directly.
The only case we need to find out about the mapping is when we
actively generate a register access, which only occurs when injecting
a fault in a guest.

When injecting a fault into a misbehaving 32bit guest, it seems
rather idiotic to also inject a 64bit fault that is only going
to corrupt the guest state. This leads to a situation where we
perform an illegal exception return at EL2 causing the host
to crash instead of killing the guest.
Just fix the stupid bug that has been there from day 1.

Now that we have common ESR_ELx macros, make use of them in the arm64
KVM code. The addition of <asm/esr.h> to the include path highlighted
badly ordered (i.e. not alphabetical) include lists; these are changed
to alphabetical order.
There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Implement the injection of a fault (undefined, data abort or
prefetch abort) into a 64bit guest.
