KVM: move KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL to the generic check
KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL allows userspace to check if the kvm_device
framework (e.g. KVM_CREATE_DEVICE) is supported by KVM. Move
KVM_CAP_DEVICE_CTRL to the generic check for the two reasons:
1) it already supports arch agnostic usages (i.e. KVM_DEV_TYPE_VFIO).
For example, userspace VFIO implementation may needs to create
KVM_DEV_TYPE_VFIO on x86, riscv, or arm etc. It is simpler to have it
checked at the generic code than at each arch's code.
2) KVM_CREATE_DEVICE has been added to the generic code.
