On RISC-V platforms with hardware VMID support, we share same
VMID for all VCPUs of a particular Guest/VM. This means we might
have stale G-stage TLB entries on the current Host CPU due to
some other VCPU of the same Guest which ran previously on the
current Host CPU.
To cleanup stale TLB entries, we simply flush all G-stage TLB
entries by VMID whenever underlying Host CPU changes for a VCPU.

The generic KVM has support for VCPU requests which can be used
to do arch-specific work in the run-loop. We introduce remote
HFENCE functions which will internally use VCPU requests instead
of host SBI calls.
Advantages of doing remote HFENCEs as VCPU requests are:
1) Multiple VCPUs of a Guest may be running on different Host CPUs
so it is not always possible to determine the Host CPU mask for
doing Host SBI call. For example, when VCPU X wants to do HFENCE
on VCPU Y, it is possible that VCPU Y is blocked or in user-space
(i.e. vcpu->cpu < 0).
2) To support nested virtualization, we will be having a separate
shadow G-stage for each VCPU and a common host G-stage for the
entire Guest/VM. The VCPU requests based remote HFENCEs helps
us easily synchronize the common host G-stage and shadow G-stage
of each VCPU without any additional IPI calls.
This is also a preparatory patch for upcoming nested virtualization
support where we will be having a shadow G-stage page table for
each Guest VCPU.

Various __kvm_riscv_hfence_xyz() functions implemented in the
kvm/tlb.S are equivalent to corresponding HFENCE.GVMA instructions
and we don't have range based local HFENCE functions.
This patch provides complete set of local HFENCE functions which
supports range based TLB invalidation and supports HFENCE.VVMA
based functions. This is also a preparatory patch for upcoming
Svinval support in KVM RISC-V.
