KVM: Clarify KVM_{SET,GET}_ONE_REG error code documentation
The current error code documentation for KVM_GET_ONE_REG and KVM_SET_ONE_REG could be read as implying that all architectures implement these error codes, or that KVM guarantees which error code is returned in a particular situation. Because this is not really the case, this patch waters down the documentation explicitly to remove such guarantees. EPERM is marked as arm64-specific, since for now arm64 really is the only architecture that yields this error code for the finalization-required case. Keeping this as a distinct error code is useful however for debugging due to the statefulness of the API in this instance. No functional change.
