KVM: arm64: Avoid unnecessary absolute addressing via literals
There are a few cases in the nVHE code where we take the absolute
address of a symbol via a literal pool entry, and subsequently translate
it to another address space (PA, kimg VA, kernel linear VA, etc).
Originally, this literal was needed because we relied on a different
translation for absolute references, but this is no longer the case, so
we can simply use relative addressing instead. This removes a couple of
RELA entries pointing into the .text segment.
