KVM: arm64: Remove stage 2 read fault check

Browse Source 
In the non-NV case, read permission is always granted when mapping
stage-2, so checking for it doesn't bring much. On the other hand,
shadow stage-2 for NV guests could potentially have non-readable
mappings when we align the permissions with those that L1 set for L2, we
shouldn't be checking for read faults in this case either.

So just remove this check.
