KVM: arm64: Don't overwrite software bits with owner id
We will soon start annotating page-tables with new flags to track shared
pages and such, and we will do so in valid mappings using software bits
in the PTEs, as provided by the architecture. However, it is possible
that we will need to use those flags to annotate invalid mappings as
well in the future, similar to what we do to track page ownership in the
host stage-2.
In order to facilitate the annotation of invalid mappings with such
flags, it would be preferable to re-use the same bits as for valid
mappings (bits [58-55]), but these are currently used for ownership
encoding. Since we have plenty of bits left to use in invalid
mappings, move the ownership bits further down the PTE to avoid the
conflict.
