Overall this patch looks good to me but the patch subject and
description can further simplified as follows:

    RISC-V: KVM: Redirect AMO load/store access fault traps to guest

    The KVM RISC-V does not delegate AMO load/store access fault traps to
    VS-mode (hedeleg) so typically M-mode takes these traps and redirects
    them back to HS-mode. However, upon returning from M-mode, the KVM
    RISC-V running in HS-mode terminates VS-mode software.

    The KVM RISC-V should redirect AMO load/store access fault traps back
    to VS-mode and let the VS-mode trap handler determine the next steps.

I have taken care of the above at the time of queuing this patch.
