We already have the percpu area for the host cpu state, which points to the VCPU, so there's no need to store the VCPU pointer on the stack on every context switch. We can be a little more clever and just use tpidr_el2 for the percpu offset and load the VCPU pointer from the host context. This requires us to have a scratch register though, so we take the chance to rearrange some of the el1_sync code to only look at the vttbr_el2 to determine if this is a trap from the guest or an HVC from the host. We do add an extra check to call the panic code if the kernel is configured with debugging enabled and we saw a trap from the host which wasn't an HVC, indicating that we left some EL2 trap configured by mistake.

yeah, I suppose.

That's definitely what the compiler generates from C code...
This relies on the property that the kernel/hyp offset is constant, and that it doesn't matter if we add the offset to a kernel VA or a HYP VA... Completely untested of course!
You're the hyp VA expert. Is it valid to rely on that assumption?

yes, patch splitting snafu. Will fix. By the way, what I'm going for is anything in the hyp address space has leading __, and otherwise ot.
