KVM: PPC: Align pt_regs in kvm_vcpu_arch structure

The H_ENTER_NESTED hypercall receives as second parameter the address
of a region of memory containing the values for the nested guest
privileged registers. We currently use the pt_regs structure contained
within kvm_vcpu_arch for that end.

Most hypercalls that receive a memory address expect that region to
not cross a 4K page boundary. We would want H_ENTER_NESTED to follow
the same pattern so this patch ensures the pt_regs structure sits
within a page.

Note: the pt_regs structure is currently 384 bytes in size, so
aligning to 512 is sufficient to ensure it will not cross a 4K page
and avoids punching too big a hole in struct kvm_vcpu_arch.
