KVM: s390: Allocate and save/restore vector registers

Define and allocate space for both the host and guest views of
the vector registers for a given vcpu.  The 32 vector registers
occupy 128 bits each (512 bytes total), but architecturally are
paired with 512 additional bytes of reserved space for future
expansion.

The kvm_sync_regs structs containing the registers are union'ed
with 1024 bytes of padding in the common kvm_run struct.  The
addition of 1024 bytes of new register information clearly exceeds
the existing union, so an expansion of that padding is required.

When changing environments, we need to appropriately save and
restore the vector registers viewed by both the host and guest,
into and out of the sync_regs space.

The floating point registers overlay the upper half of vector
registers 0-15, so there's a bit of data duplication here that
needs to be carefully avoided.

Only privileged operation exceptions will be checked for in the kernel (or even

7.3 KVM_CAP_S390_VECTOR_REGISTERS
Architectures: s390
Parameters: none
Returns: 0 on success, negative value on error
Allows use of the vector registers introduced with z13 processor, and
provides for the synchronization between host and user space. Will
return -EINVAL if the machine does not support vectors.
