    xen/arm64: entry: Actually skip do_trap_*() when an SError is triggered
    
    For SErrors, we support two configurations:
      * Every SErrors will result to a panic in Xen
      * We will forward SErrors triggered by a VM back to itself
    
    For the latter case, we want to skip the call to do_trap_*() because the PC
    was already adjusted.
    
    However, the alternative used to decide between the two configurations
    is inverted. This would result to the VM corrupting itself if:
      * x19 is non-zero in the panic case
      * advance PC too much in the second case
    
    Solve the issue by switch from alternative_if to alternative_if_not.
    
    Fixes: a458d3bd0d25 ("xen/arm: entry: Ensure the guest state is synced when 
receiving a vSError")
