introducing a ->mp_state field to emulate the SMP state transition.

This patch changes the PIC interrupts delivery. Now it is only delivered
to vcpu0 when either condition is met (on vcpu0):
1. local APIC is hardware disabled
2. LVT0 is unmasked and configured to delivery mode ExtInt
It fixes the 2x faster wall clock on x86_64 and SMP i386 Linux guests

APIC timer IRQ is set every time when a certain period
expires at host time, but the guest may be descheduled
at that time and thus the irq be overwritten by later fire.
This patch keep track of firing irq numbers and decrease
only when the IRQ is injected to guest or buffered in
APIC.

This patch adds a new vcpu-based IOCTL to save and restore the local
apic registers for a single vcpu. The kernel only copies the apic page as
a whole, extraction of registers is left to userspace side. On restore, the
APIC timer is restarted from the initial count, this introduces a little
delay, but works fine.

Because lightweight exits (exits which don't involve userspace) are many
times faster than heavyweight exits, it makes sense to emulate high usage
devices in the kernel. The local APIC is one such device, especially for
Windows and for SMP, so we add an APIC model to kvm.
It also allows in-kernel host-side drivers to inject interrupts without
going through userspace.

vmx_load_host_state() bundles fs, gs, ldt, and tss reloading into
one in the hope that it is infrequent. With smp guests, fs reloading is
frequent due to fs being used by threads.

We need to check for signals inside the critical section, otherwise a
signal can be sent which we will not notice. Also move the check
before entry, so that if the signal happens before the first entry,
we exit immediately instead of waiting for something to happen to the
guest.

Both vmx and svm decode the I/O instructions, and both botch the job,
requiring the instruction prefixes to be fetched in order to completely
decode the instruction.
So, if we see a string I/O instruction, use the x86 emulator to decode it,
as it already has all the prefix decoding machinery.
This patch defines ins/outs opcodes in x86_emulate.c and calls
emulate_instruction() from io_interception() (svm.c) and from handle_io()
(vmx.c). It removes all vmx/svm prefix instruction decoders
(get_addr_size(), io_get_override(), io_address(), get_io_count())

kvm_vm_ioctl_get_dirty_log scans bitmap to see it it's all zero, but
doesn't use that information.
Avi says:
Looks like it was used to guard kvm_mmu_slot_remove_write_access();
optimizing the case where the guest just leaves the screen alone (which
it usually does, especially in benchmarks).
I'd rather reinstate that optimization. See
90cb0529dd where the damage was done.
It's pretty simple: if the bitmap is all zero, we don't need to do anything to
clean it.
