KVM: arm64: nv: Only toggle cache for virtual EL2 when SCTLR_EL2 changes
So far we were flushing almost the entire universe whenever a VM would load/unload the SCTLR_EL1 and the two versions of that register had different MMU enabled settings. This turned out to be so slow that it prevented forward progress for a nested VM, because a scheduler timer tick interrupt would always be pending when we reached the nested VM. To avoid this problem, we consider the SCTLR_EL2 when evaluating if caches are on or off when entering virtual EL2 (because this is the value that we end up shadowing onto the hardware EL1 register).
