KVM: arm/arm64: properly use vcpu requests
arm/arm64 already has one VCPU request used when setting pause, but it doesn't properly check requests in VCPU RUN. Check it and also make sure we set vcpu->mode at the appropriate time (before the check) and with the appropriate barriers. See Documentation/virtual/kvm/vcpu-requests.rst. Also make sure we don't leave any vcpu requests we don't intend to handle later set in the request bitmap. If we don't clear them, then kvm_request_pending() may return true when it shouldn't. Using VCPU requests properly fixes a small race where pause could get set just as a VCPU was entering guest mode.
