[PATCH RESEND v2] KVM: LAPIC: Enable timer posted-interrupt when mwait/hlt is advertised

[Wanpeng Li <kernellwp@gmail.com>]

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@tencent.com>

As commit 0c5f81dad46 (KVM: LAPIC: Inject timer interrupt via posted interrupt) 
mentioned that the host admin should well tune the guest setup, so that vCPUs 
are placed on isolated pCPUs, and with several pCPUs surplus for *busy* housekeeping.
It is better to disable mwait/hlt/pause vmexits to keep the vCPUs in non-root 
mode. However, we may isolate pCPUs for other purpose like DPDK or we can make 
some guests isolated and others not, we may lose vmx preemption timer/timer fastpath 
due to not well tuned setup, and the checking in kvm_can_post_timer_interrupt() 
is not enough. Let's guarantee mwait/hlt is advertised before enabling posted-interrupt 
interrupt. vmx preemption timer/timer fastpath can continue to work if both of them 
are not advertised.
