KVM: arm64: Use acquire/release to communicate FF-A version negotiation
The pKVM FF-A proxy rejects FF-A requests other than FFA_VERSION until version negotiation is complete, which is signalled by setting the global 'has_version_negotiated' variable. To avoid excessive locking, this variable is checked directly from kvm_host_ffa_handler() in response to an FF-A call, but this can race against another CPU performing the negotiation and potentially lead to reading a torn value (incredibly unlikely for a 'bool') or problematic re-ordering of the accesses to 'has_version_negotiated' and 'hyp_ffa_version' whereby a stale version number could be read by __do_ffa_mem_xfer(). Use acquire/release primitives when writing 'has_version_negotiated' with the version lock held and when reading without the lock held.
