Architecturally, TLBs are private to the (physical) CPU they're
associated with. But when multiple vcpus from the same VM are
being multiplexed on the same CPU, the TLBs are not private
to the vcpus (and are actually shared across the VMID).
Let's consider the following scenario:
- vcpu-0 maps PA to VA
- vcpu-1 maps PA' to VA
If run on the same physical CPU, vcpu-1 can hit TLB entries generated
by vcpu-0 accesses, and access the wrong physical page.
The solution to this is to keep a per-VM map of which vcpu ran last
on each given physical CPU, and invalidate local TLBs when switching
to a different vcpu from the same VM.

When rewriting the assembly code to C code, it was useful to have
exported aliases or static functions so that we could keep the existing
common C code unmodified and at the same time rewrite arm64 from
assembly to C code, and later do the arm part.
Now when both are done, we really don't need this level of indirection
anymore, and it's time to save a few lines and brain cells.

In order to be able to move code outside of kvm/hyp, we need to make
the global hyp.h file accessible from a standard location.
include/asm/kvm_hyp.h seems good enough.

As we've now switched to the new world switch implementation,
remove the weak attributes, as nobody is supposed to override
it anymore.

So far, we've implemented the new world switch with a completely
different namespace, so that we could have both implementation
compiled in.
Let's take things one step further by adding weak aliases that
have the same names as the original implementation. The weak
attributes allows the new implementation to be overriden by the
old one, and everything still work.
At a later point, we'll be able to simply drop the old code, and
everything will hopefully keep working, thanks to the aliases we
have just added. This also saves us repainting all the callers.

Implement the TLB handling as a direct translation of the assembly
code version.
