    ARM: new VGIC: Allocate two pages for struct vcpu
    
    At the moment we allocate exactly one page for struct vcpu on ARM, also
    have a check in place to prevent it growing beyond 4KB.
    As the struct includes the state of all 32 private (per-VCPU) interrupts,
    we are at 3840 bytes on arm64 at the moment already. Growing the per-IRQ
    VGIC structure even slightly makes the VCPU quickly exceed the 4K limit.
    The new VGIC will need more space per virtual IRQ. I spent a few hours
    trying to trim this down, but couldn't get it below 4KB, even with the
    nasty hacks piling up to save some bytes here and there.
    It turns out that beyond efficiency, maybe, there is no real technical
    reason this struct has to fit in one page, so lifting the limit to two
    pages seems like the most pragmatic solution.
    Restrict the compilation error to compiling with the new VGIC and for
    ARM64 only.
