lguest: improve interrupt handling, speed up stream networking

lguest never checked for pending interrupts when enabling interrupts, and
things still worked.  However, it makes a significant difference to TCP
performance, so it's time we fixed it by introducing a pending_irq flag
and checking it on irq_restore and irq_enable.

These two routines are now too big to patch into the 8/10 bytes
patch space, so we drop that code.

Note: The high latency on interrupt delivery had a very curious
effect: once everything else was optimized, networking without GSO was
faster than networking with GSO, since more interrupts were sent and
hence a greater chance of one getting through to the Guest!

Note2: (Almost) Closing the same loophole for iret doesn't have any
measurable effect, so I'm leaving that patch for the moment.

Before:
	1GB tcpblast Guest->Host:		30.7 seconds
	1GB tcpblast Guest->Host (no GSO):	76.0 seconds

After:
	1GB tcpblast Guest->Host:		6.8 seconds
	1GB tcpblast Guest->Host (no GSO):	27.8 seconds
