KVM_CAP_ARM_EL2 must be supported by the cpu to enable ARM_FEATURE_EL2.
In case the host does support NV, expose the feature.

v1 -> v2:
- remove isar_feature_aa64_aa32_el2 modif in target/arm/cpu.h
  [Richard] and use el2_supported in kvm_arch_init_vcpu

Am I reading this right that if the kernel supports FEAT_NV
then we will always ask for a vCPU with that feature?
Is that a good idea, or should we arrange to only do it if
the user uses the 'virtualization=on' option to -M virt ?
(Or does that happen already in some way I'm not seeing?)

thanks

yes you're right, if the host supports it, the feature is currently set
on the vcpu. I am not totaly clear under which conditions the features
shall be instantiated in the scratch VM and when the host passthrough
model shall be altered by machine option.
