[PATCH 2/6] KVM: PPC: BOOK3S: HV: Deny virtual page class key update via h_protect

This makes it consistent with h_enter where we clear the key
bits. We also want to use virtual page class key protection mechanism
for indicating host page fault. For that we will be using key class
index 30 and 31. So prevent the guest from updating key bits until
we add proper support for virtual page class protection mechanism for
the guest. This will not have any impact for PAPR linux guest because
Linux guest currently don't use virtual page class key protection model
