KVM: arm64: Stop handle_exit() from handling HVC twice when an SError occurs
Prior to commit defe21f49bc9 ("KVM: arm64: Move PC rollback on SError to HYP"), when an SError is synchronised due to another exception, KVM handles the SError first. If the guest survives, the instruction that triggered the original exception is re-exectued to handle the first exception. HVC is treated as a special case as the instruction wouldn't normally be re-exectued, as its not a trap. Commit defe21f49bc9 didn't preserve the behaviour of the 'return 1' that skips the rest of handle_exit(). Since commit defe21f49bc9, KVM will try to handle the SError and the original exception at the same time. When the exception was an HVC, fixup_guest_exit() has already rolled back ELR_EL2, meaning if the guest has virtual SError masked, it will execute and handle the HVC twice. Restore the original behaviour.
