Sean Christopherson 1dc0f02d53 KVM: arm64: Do arm/arch initialization without bouncing through kvm_init()

Do arm/arch specific initialization directly in arm's module_init(), now
called kvm_arm_init(), instead of bouncing through kvm_init() to reach
kvm_arch_init().  Invoking kvm_arch_init() is the very first action
performed by kvm_init(), so from a initialization perspective this is a
glorified nop.

Avoiding kvm_arch_init() also fixes a mostly benign bug as kvm_arch_exit()
doesn't properly unwind if a later stage of kvm_init() fails.  While the
soon-to-be-deleted comment about compiling as a module being unsupported
is correct, kvm_arch_exit() can still be called by kvm_init() if any step
after the call to kvm_arch_init() succeeds.

Add a FIXME to call out that pKVM initialization isn't unwound if
kvm_init() fails, which is a pre-existing problem inherited from
kvm_arch_exit().

Making kvm_arch_init() a nop will also allow dropping kvm_arch_init() and
kvm_arch_exit() entirely once all other architectures follow suit.
