Current kvm disables preemption while the new virtualization registers are
in use.  This of course is not very good for latency sensitive workloads (one
use of virtualization is to offload user interface and other latency
insensitive stuff to a container, so that it is easier to analyze the
remaining workload).  This patch re-enables preemption for kvm; preemption
is now only disabled when switching the registers in and out, and during
the switch to guest mode and back.

This patch converts the vcpus array in "struct kvm" to a pointer

If the time stamp counter goes backwards, a guest delay loop can become
infinite.  This can happen if a vcpu is migrated to another cpu, where
the counter has a lower value than the first cpu.

Since we're doing an IPI to the first cpu anyway, we can use that to pick
up the old tsc, and use that to calculate the adjustment we need to make
to the tsc offset.

When a vcpu causes a shadow tlb entry to have reduced permissions, it
must also clear the tlb on remote vcpus.  We do that by:

- setting a bit on the vcpu that requests a tlb flush before the next entry
- if the vcpu is currently executing, we send an ipi to make sure it
  exits before we continue

MSR_EFER.LME/LMA bits are automatically save/restored by VMX
hardware, KVM only needs to save NX/SCE bits at time of heavy
weight VM Exit. But clearing NX bits in host envirnment may
cause system hang if the host page table is using EXB bits,
thus we leave NX bits as it is. If Host NX=1 and guest NX=0, we
can do guest page table EXB bits check before inserting a shadow
pte (though no guest is expecting to see this kind of gp fault).
If host NX=0, we present guest no Execute-Disable feature to guest,
thus no host NX=0, guest NX=1 combination.

If we set an msr via an ioctl() instead of by handling a guest exit, we
have the host state loaded, so reloading the msrs would clobber host

The lightweight vmexit path avoids saving and reloading certain host

which requires reloading the host state.
