KVM: arm64: nVHE: Handle hyp panics
Restore the host context when panicking from hyp to give the best chance of the panic being clean. The host requires that registers be preserved such as x18 for the shadow callstack. If the panic is caused by an exception from EL1, the host context is still valid so the panic can return straight back to the host. If the panic comes from EL2 then it's most likely that the hyp context is active and the host context needs to be restored. There are windows before and after the host context is saved and restored that restoration is attempted incorrectly and the panic won't be clean.
