KVM: arm64: Guard against NULL vcpu on VHE hyp panic path

Browse Source 
On VHE, __hyp_call_panic() unconditionally calls __deactivate_traps(vcpu)
on the vcpu pointer read from host_ctxt->__hyp_running_vcpu. That pointer
is cleared after every guest exit (and is never set when no guest is
running), so an unexpected EL2 exception landing in _guest_exit_panic,
e.g. via the el2t*_invalid / el2h_irq_invalid vectors - reaches this
function with vcpu == NULL. __deactivate_traps() then dereferences vcpu
via ___deactivate_traps() -> vserror_state_is_nested() -> vcpu_has_nv()
-> vcpu->arch.features, faulting inside the panic handler and obscuring
the original failure.

The nVHE counterpart (hyp_panic() in arch/arm64/kvm/hyp/nvhe/switch.c)
already guards its vcpu-using cleanup with "if (vcpu)"; mirror that
here. sysreg_restore_host_state_vhe() does not depend on vcpu and
continues to run unconditionally, preserving panic forensics. The
trailing panic("...VCPU:%p", vcpu) prints "(null)" safely via printk's
%p handling.
