In order to make the saving path slightly more readable and
prepare for some more optimizations, let's move the GICH_ELRSR
saving to its own function.
No functional change.

Next on our list of useless accesses is the maintenance interrupt
status registers (GICH_MISR, GICH_EISR{0,1}).
It is pointless to save them if we haven't asked for a maintenance
interrupt the first place, which can only happen for two reasons:
- Underflow: GICH_HCR_UIE will be set,
- EOI: GICH_LR_EOI will be set.
These conditions can be checked on the in-memory copies of the regs.
Should any of these two condition be valid, we must read GICH_MISR.
We can then check for GICH_MISR_EOI, and only when set read
GICH_EISR*.
This means that in most case, we don't have to save them at all.

GICv2 registers are *slow*. As in "terrifyingly slow". Which is bad.
But we're equaly bad, as we make a point in accessing them even if
we don't have any interrupt in flight.
A good solution is to first find out if we have anything useful to
write into the GIC, and if we don't, to simply not do it. This
involves tracking which LRs actually have something valid there.

We already have virt/kvm/arm/ containing timer and vgic stuff.
Add yet another subdirectory to contain the hyp-specific files
(timer and vgic again).
