[PATCH 04/56] KVM: arm64: Check HCR_EL2 instead of shadow copy to swap PtrAuth registers

From: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org>
Date: 2020-08-05 17:58:48
Also in: kvm, kvmarm
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), kernel virtual machine for arm64 (kvm/arm64), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Marc Zyngier, Oliver Upton, Linus Torvalds

When save/restoring PtrAuth registers between host and guest, it is
pretty useless to fetch the in-memory state, while we have the right
state in the HCR_EL2 system register. Use that instead.
