port-arm/58194: Resurrect vmt(4) from bitrot

On this architecture vmt(4) used to search for a node "/hypervisor" in the
FDT and probed the VMware hypervisor call only when the node was
found. However, things appear to have changed and VMware no longer provides
the FDT node.

Since vmt(4) doesn't actually need to read anything from FDT, and the
hypervisor call logically resides in virtual CPUs themselves, it would be
better to attach it directly to cpu, just like how it's probed on x86.
