arm64: kprobe: Always blacklist the KVM world-switch code
On systems with VHE the kernel and KVM's world-switch code run at the same exception level. Code that is only used on a VHE system does not need to be annotated as __hyp_text as it can reside anywhere in the kernel text. __hyp_text was also used to prevent kprobes from patching breakpoint instructions into this region, as this code runs at a different exception level. While this is no longer true with VHE, KVM still switches VBAR_EL1, meaning a kprobe's breakpoint executed in the world-switch code will cause a hyp-panic. Move the __hyp_text check in the kprobes blacklist so it applies on VHE systems too, to cover the common code and guest enter/exit assembly.
