Roman Kagan 4cbaf3c133 hyperv: add synic message delivery
Add infrastructure to deliver SynIC messages to the SynIC message page.

Note that KVM may also want to deliver (SynIC timer) messages to the
same message slot.

The problem is that the access to a SynIC message slot is controlled by
the value of its .msg_type field which indicates if the slot is being
owned by the hypervisor (zero) or by the guest (non-zero).

This leaves no room for synchronizing multiple concurrent producers.

The simplest way to deal with this for both KVM and QEMU is to only
deliver messages in the vcpu thread.  KVM already does this; this patch
makes it for QEMU, too.

Specifically,

 - add a function for posting messages, which only copies the message
   into the staging buffer if its free, and schedules a work on the
   corresponding vcpu to actually deliver it to the guest slot;

 - instead of a sint ack callback, set up the sint route with a message
   status callback.  This function is called in a bh whenever there are
   updates to the message slot status: either the vcpu made definitive
   progress delivering the message from the staging buffer (succeeded or
   failed) or the guest issued EOM; the status is passed as an argument
   to the callback.
