KVM: arm64: selftests: Disable single-step without relying on ucall()
Automatically disable single-step when the guest reaches the end of the verified section instead of using an explicit ucall() to ask userspace to disable single-step. An upcoming change to implement a pool-based scheme for ucall() will add an atomic operation (bit test and set) in the guest ucall code, and if the compiler generate "old school" atomics, e.g. 40e57c: c85f7c20 ldxr x0, [x1] 40e580: aa100011 orr x17, x0, x16 40e584: c80ffc31 stlxr w15, x17, [x1] 40e588: 35ffffaf cbnz w15, 40e57c <__aarch64_ldset8_sync+0x1c> the guest will hang as the local exclusive monitor is reset by eret, i.e. the stlxr will always fail due to the debug exception taken to EL2.
