In general, it is a good strategy to always redirect illegal instruction
traps to VS-mode.

Setting sstatus.SPP needs to be done in kvm_riscv_vcpu_trap_redirect()
because for guest all traps are always taken by VS-mode.

This is not a related change.

Overall, this patch can be accepted independent of this series due
to its usefulness.

I send a v2 of this patch separately.
