arm64: KVM: Tighten guest core register access from userspace
We currently allow userspace to access the core register file in about any possible way, including straddling multiple registers and doing unaligned accesses. This is not the expected use of the ABI, and nobody is actually using it that way. Let's tighten it by explicitly checking the size and alignment for each field of the register file.
