In case there is external interrupt pending the code generates "external

If preempted after kvmclock values are updated, but before hardware
virtualization is entered, the last tsc time as read by the guest is
never set. It underflows the next time kvmclock is updated if there
has not yet been a successful entry / exit into hardware virt.
Fix this by simply setting last_tsc to the newly read tsc value so
that any computed nsec advance of kvmclock is nulled.

Change the interrupt injection code to work from preemptible, interrupts

vmx_complete_interrupts() does too much, split it up:
- vmx_vcpu_run() gets the "cache important vmcs fields" part
- a new vmx_complete_atomic_exit() gets the parts that must be done atomically
- a new vmx_recover_nmi_blocking() does what its name says
- vmx_complete_interrupts() retains the event injection recovery code
This helps in reducing the work done in atomic context.

Instead of blindly attempting to inject an event before each guest entry,
check for a possible event first in vcpu->requests. Sites that can trigger
event injection are modified to set KVM_REQ_EVENT:
- interrupt, nmi window opening
- ppr updates
- i8259 output changes
- local apic irr changes
- rflags updates
- gif flag set
- event set on exit
This improves non-injecting entry performance, and sets the stage for
non-atomic injection.

Commit "KVM: MMU: Make tdp_enabled a mmu-context parameter" made real-mode
set ->direct_map, and changed the code that merges in the memory type depend
on direct_map instead of tdp_enabled. However, in this case what really
matters is tdp, not direct_map, since tdp changes the pte format regardless
of whether the mapping is direct or not.
As a result, real-mode shadow mappings got corrupted with ept memory types.
The result was a huge slowdown, likely due to the cache being disabled.
Change it back as the simplest fix for the regression (real fix is to move
all that to vmx code, and not use tdp_enabled as a synonym for ept).
