KVM: arm64: nv: Move L2->L1 switch on interrupt early
This commit moves the nested request generation for L2->L1 switch on
interrupt and the maintenance interrupt (MI) generation to earlier in
the vCPU entry sequence.

[Severity: Low]
This isn't a bug, but should this comment block in kvm_vgic_flush_hwstate()
be updated?
The patch moves the execution of vgic_v3_nested_update_mi() to
kvm_nested_flush_hwstate(), so the note about computing the maintenance
interrupt state here appears to be outdated now.
