We do not have to change the c15 trap setting on each switch to/from the
guest on VHE systems, because this setting only affects EL0.

The PMU and debug trap configuration can also be done on vcpu load/put
instead, because they don't affect how the host kernel can access the
debug registers while executing KVM kernel code.

The last patch 32/40 probably should have been closer to 13/40 in
this series. That would allow this patch to directly follow it's
preparatory patch 31/40, but I'm just whiny reviewer...
