KVM: arm64: Move double-checked lock to kvm_vgic_map_resources()
kvm_vgic_map_resources() is called when a VCPU if first run and it maps all the VGIC MMIO regions. To prevent double-initialization, the VGIC uses the ready variable to keep track of the state of resources and the global KVM mutex to protect against concurrent accesses. After the lock is taken, the variable is checked again in case another VCPU took the lock between the current VCPU reading ready equals false and taking the lock. The double-checked lock pattern is spread across four different functions: in kvm_vcpu_first_run_init(), in kvm_vgic_map_resource() and in vgic_{v2,v3}_map_resources(), which makes it hard to reason about and introduces minor code duplication. Consolidate the checks in kvm_vgic_map_resources(), where the lock is taken. No functional change intended.
