ARM: KVM: Check KVM_CAP_ARM_IRQ_LINE_LAYOUT_2 for smp_cpus > 256
Host kernel within [4.18, 5.3] report an erroneous KVM_MAX_VCPUS=512 for ARM. The actual capability to instantiate more than 256 vcpus was fixed in 5.4 with the upgrade of the KVM_IRQ_LINE ABI to support vcpu id encoded on 12 bits instead of 8 and a redistributor consuming a single KVM IO device instead of 2. So let's check this capability when attempting to use more than 256 vcpus within any ARM kvm accelerated machine.
