arm64: KVM: Always reference __hyp_panic_string via its kernel VA
__hyp_panic_string is passed via the HYP panic code to the panic function, and is being "upgraded" to a kernel address, as it is referenced by the HYP code (in a PC-relative way). This is a bit silly, and we'd be better off obtaining the kernel address and not mess with it at all. This patch implements this with a tiny bit of asm glue, by forcing the string pointer to be read from the literal pool.
