Subject: [PATCH v3 12/15] arm64: Detect async PF para-virtualization feature

This implements kvm_para_available() to check if para-virtualization
features are available or not. Besides, kvm_para_has_feature() is
enhanced to detect the asynchronous page fault para-virtualization
feature. These two functions are going to be used by guest kernel
to enable the asynchronous page fault.

This also adds kernel option (CONFIG_KVM_GUEST), which is the umbrella
for the optimizations related to KVM para-virtualization.
