Move arm/arch specific initialization directly in arm's module_init(),
now called kvm_arm_init(), instead of bouncing through kvm_init() to
reach kvm_arch_init().  Invoking kvm_arch_init() is the very first action
performed by kvm_init(), i.e. this is a glorified nop.

Making kvm_arch_init() a nop will allow dropping it entirely once all
other architectures follow suit.

No functional change intended.

Doesn't this belong to the previous patch?

No, but the above changelog is a lie, there is very much a functional change here.

The goal of the previous patch is to fix the error paths in kvm_arch_init(), a.k.a.
kvm_arm_init().  After fixing kvm_arch_init(), there are still bugs in the sequence
as a whole because kvm_arch_exit() doesn't unwind other state, e.g. kvm_arch_exit()
should really look something like:

  void kvm_arch_exit(void)
  {
	teardown_subsystems();

	if (!is_kernel_in_hyp_mode())
		teardown_hyp_mode();

	kvm_arm_vmid_alloc_free();

	if (is_protected_kvm_enabled())
		???	
  }

Becuase although the comment "NOP: Compiling as a module not supported" is correct
about KVM ARM always having to be built into the kernel, kvm_arch_exit() can still
be called if a later stage of kvm_init() fails.

But rather than add a patch to fix kvm_arch_exit(), I chose to fix the bug by
moving code out of kvm_arch_init() so that the unwind sequence established in the
previous patch could be reused.

Except I managed to forget those details when writing the changelog.  The changelog
should instead be:

  KVM: arm64: Do arm/arch initialization without bouncing through kvm_init()
  
  Do arm/arch specific initialization directly in arm's module_init(), now
  called kvm_arm_init(), instead of bouncing through kvm_init() to reach
  kvm_arch_init().  Invoking kvm_arch_init() is the very first action
  performed by kvm_init(), so from a initialization perspective this is a
  glorified nop.
  
  Avoiding kvm_arch_init() also fixes a mostly benign bug as kvm_arch_exit()
  doesn't properly unwind if a later stage of kvm_init() fails.  While the
  soon-to-be-deleted comment about compiling as a module being unsupported
  is correct, kvm_arch_exit() can still be called by kvm_init() if any step
  after the call to kvm_arch_init() succeeds.

  Add a FIXME to call out that pKVM initialization isn't unwound if
  kvm_init() fails, which is a pre-existing problem inherited from
  kvm_arch_exit().

  Making kvm_arch_init() a nop will also allow dropping kvm_arch_init() and
  kvm_arch_exit() entirely once all other architectures follow suit.
