When using VHE, the host needs to clear HCR_EL2.TGE bit in order
to interract with guest TLBs, switching from EL2&0 translation regime
to EL1&0.

However, some non-maskable asynchronous event could happen while TGE is
cleared like SDEI. Because of this address translation operations
relying on EL2&0 translation regime could fail (tlb invalidation,
userspace access, ...).

Fix this by properly setting HCR_EL2.TGE when entering NMI context and
clear it if necessary when returning to the interrupted context.
