KVM: arm64: pkvm: Don't reprobe for ICH_VTR_EL2.TDS on CPU hotplug 

Hotplugging a CPU off and back on fails with pKVM, as we try to
probe for ICH_VTR_EL2.TDS. In a non-VHE setup, this is achieved
by using an EL2 stub helper. However, the stubs are out of reach
once pKVM has deprivileged the kernel. The CPU never boots.

Since pKVM doesn't allow late onlining of CPUs, we can detect
that protected mode is enforced early on, and return the current
state of the capability.
