KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Introduce low level MSR accessor
kvmppc_get_msr() and kvmppc_set_msr_fast() serve as accessors for the MSR. However because the MSR is kept in the shared regs they include a conditional check for kvmppc_shared_big_endian() and endian conversion. Within the Book3S HV specific code there are direct reads and writes of shregs::msr. In preparation for Nested APIv2 these accesses need to be replaced with accessor functions so it is possible to extend their behavior. However, using the kvmppc_get_msr() and kvmppc_set_msr_fast() functions is undesirable because it would introduce a conditional branch and endian conversion that is not currently present. kvmppc_set_msr_hv() already exists, it is used for the kvmppc_ops::set_msr callback. Introduce a low level accessor __kvmppc_{s,g}et_msr_hv() that simply gets and sets shregs::msr. This will be extend for Nested APIv2 support.
