KVM: race-free exit from KVM_RUN without POSIX signals

The purpose of the KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK API is to let userspace "kick"
a VCPU out of KVM_RUN through a POSIX signal.  A signal is attached
to a dummy signal handler; by blocking the signal outside KVM_RUN and
unblocking it inside, this possible race is closed:

          VCPU thread                     service thread
   --------------------------------------------------------------
        check flag
                                          set flag
                                          raise signal
        (signal handler does nothing)
        KVM_RUN

However, one issue with KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK is that it has to take
tsk->sighand->siglock on every KVM_RUN.  This lock is often on a
remote NUMA node, because it is on the node of a thread's creator.
Taking this lock can be very expensive if there are many userspace
exits (as is the case for SMP Windows VMs without Hyper-V reference
time counter).

As an alternative, we can put the flag directly in kvm_run so that
KVM can see it:

          VCPU thread                     service thread
   --------------------------------------------------------------
                                          raise signal
        signal handler
          set run->immediate_exit
        KVM_RUN
          check run->immediate_exit

This field is polled once when KVM_RUN starts; if non-zero, KVM_RUN
exits immediately, returning -EINTR. In the common scenario where a
signal is used to "kick" a VCPU out of KVM_RUN, this field can be used
to avoid usage of KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK, which has worse scalability.
Rather than blocking the signal outside KVM_RUN, userspace can set up
a signal handler that sets run->immediate_exit to a non-zero value.
This field is ignored if KVM_CAP_IMMEDIATE_EXIT is not available.
