nit: you may update the function doc comment which the extra handling of
CTR_EL0.

at this stage of the reading, why is the above check needed?

nit: the above comment explains why you need to set the shadow ctr_el0
reg before resetting other id_regs and is not associated to the case
where (!kvm_vcpu_initialized(vcpu)) is true - at least that's my
understanding -. So I would put the comment before the check and while
at it also explain why the check is needed.
