We are doing an unnecessary stack push/pop operation when restoring
the guest registers x0-x18 in __guest_enter(). This patch saves the
two instructions by using x18 as a base register. No need to store
the vcpu context pointer in stack because it is redundant, the same
information is available in tpidr_el2. The function __guest_exit()
prototype is simplified and caller pushes the regs x0-x1 to stack
instead of regs x0-x3.

Changes since v1:
Incorporated Cristoffer suggestions.
__guest_exit prototype is changed to 'void __guest_exit(u64 reason, struct
kvm_vcpu *vcpu)'.
