[PATCH v2] arch/powerpc/pseries: Fix KVM guest detection for disabling hardlockup detector

[Gautam Menghani <gautam@linux.ibm.com>]

As per the kernel documentation[1], hardlockup detector should be
disabled in KVM guests as it may give false positives. On PPC, hardlockup
detector is enabled inside KVM guests because disable_hardlockup_detector()
is marked as early_initcall and it relies on kvm_guest static key 
(is_kvm_guest()) which is initialized later during boot by 
check_kvm_guest(), which is a core_initcall. check_kvm_guest() is also 
called in pSeries_smp_probe(), which is called before initcalls, but it is
skipped if KVM guest does not have doorbell support or if the guest is 
launched with SMT=1.

Call check_kvm_guest() in disable_hardlockup_detector() so that
is_kvm_guest() check goes through fine and hardlockup detector can be
disabled inside the KVM guest.

v1 -> v2:
1. Call check_kvm_guest() call in disable_hardlockup_detector() instead
of relying on pSeries_smp_probe()
2. Add the fixes and stable tags
3. Some changes in patch description
