KVM: x86/xen: Fix kvm_xen_has_interrupt() sleeping in kvm_vcpu_block()



In kvm_vcpu_block, the current task is set to TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE before
making a final check whether the vCPU should be woken from HLT by any
incoming interrupt.

This is a problem for the get_user() in __kvm_xen_has_interrupt(), which
really shouldn't be sleeping when the task state has already been set.
I think it's actually harmless as it would just manifest itself as a
spurious wakeup, but it's causing a debug warning:

[  230.963649] do not call blocking ops when !TASK_RUNNING; state=1 set at [<00000000b6bcdbc9>] prepare_to_swait_exclusive+0x30/0x80

Fix the warning by turning it into an *explicit* spurious wakeup. When
invoked with !task_is_running(current) (and we might as well add
in_atomic() there while we're at it), just return 1 to indicate that
an IRQ is pending, which will cause a wakeup and then something will
call it again in a context that *can* sleep so it can fault the page
back in.
