PATCH 1/1 hw/intc/arm_gicv3_its: Fix the VM termination in vm_change_state_handler()

The commit cddafd8f353d ("hw/intc/arm_gicv3_its: Implement state save /restore") breaks the backward compatibility with the older kernels where vITS save/restore support is not available. The vmstate function vm_change_state_handler() should not be registered if the running kernel doesn't support ITS save/restore feature. Otherwise VM instance will be killed whenever vmstate callback function is invoked.

Observed a virtual machine shutdown with QEMU-2.10+linux-4.11 when testing the reboot command "virsh reboot <domain> --mode acpi" instead of reboot.

KVM Error: 'KVM_SET_DEVICE_ATTR failed: Group 4 attr 0x00000000000001'

Applied to target-arm.next, thanks.
