kvm/x86: per-vcpu apicv deactivation support
The decision on whether to use hardware APIC virtualization used to be taken globally, based on the availability of the feature in the CPU and the value of a module parameter. However, under certain circumstances we want to control it on per-vcpu basis. In particular, when the userspace activates HyperV synthetic interrupt controller (SynIC), APICv has to be disabled as it's incompatible with SynIC auto-EOI behavior. To achieve that, introduce 'apicv_active' flag on struct kvm_vcpu_arch, and kvm_vcpu_deactivate_apicv() function to turn APICv off. The flag is initialized based on the module parameter and CPU capability, and consulted whenever an APICv-specific action is performed.
