Previously, the guest_fpu field was embedded in the kvm_vcpu_arch
struct. Unfortunately, the field is quite large, (e.g., 4352 bytes on my
current setup). This bloats the kvm_vcpu_arch struct for x86 into an
order 3 memory allocation, which can become a problem on overcommitted
machines. Thus, this patch moves the fpu state outside of the
kvm_vcpu_arch struct.
With this patch applied, the kvm_vcpu_arch struct is reduced to 15168
bytes for vmx on my setup when building the kernel with kvmconfig.

Previously, x86's instantiation of 'struct kvm_vcpu_arch' added an fpu
field to save/restore fpu-related architectural state, which will differ
from kvm's fpu state. However, this is redundant to the 'struct fpu'
field, called fpu, embedded in the task struct, via the thread field.
Thus, this patch removes the user_fpu field from the kvm_vcpu_arch
struct and replaces it with the task struct's fpu field.
This change is significant because the fpu struct is actually quite
large. For example, on the system used to develop this patch, this
change reduces the size of the vcpu_vmx struct from 23680 bytes down to
19520 bytes, when building the kernel with kvmconfig. This reduction in
the size of the vcpu_vmx struct moves us closer to being able to
allocate the struct at order 2, rather than order 3.

Turns out Hyper-V on KVM (as of 2016) will only use synthetic timers
if direct mode is available. With direct mode we notify the guest by
asserting APIC irq instead of sending a SynIC message.
The implementation uses existing vec_bitmap for letting lapic code
know that we're interested in the particular IRQ's EOI request. We assume
that the same APIC irq won't be used by the guest for both direct mode
stimer and as sint source (especially with AutoEOI semantics). It is
unclear how things should be handled if that's not true.
Direct mode is also somewhat less expensive; in my testing
stimer_send_msg() takes not less than 1500 cpu cycles and
stimer_notify_direct() can usually be done in 300-400. WS2016 without
Hyper-V, however, always sticks to non-direct version.

The SynIC message delivery protocol allows the message originator to
request, should the message slot be busy, to be notified when it's free.
However, this is unnecessary and even undesirable for messages generated
by SynIC timers in periodic mode: if the period is short enough compared
to the time the guest spends in the timer interrupt handler, so the
timer ticks start piling up, the excessive interactions due to this
notification and retried message delivery only makes the things worse.
[This was observed, in particular, with Windows L2 guests setting
(temporarily) the periodic timer to 2 kHz, and spending hundreds of
microseconds in the timer interrupt handler due to several L2->L1 exits;
under some load in L0 this could exceed 500 us so the timer ticks
started to pile up and the guest livelocked.]
Relieve the situation somewhat by not retrying message delivery for
periodic SynIC timers. This appears to remain within the "lazy" lost
ticks policy for SynIC timers as implemented in KVM.
Note that it doesn't solve the fundamental problem of livelocking the
guest with a periodic timer whose period is smaller than the time needed
to process a tick, but it makes it a bit less likely to be triggered.

SynIC message delivery is somewhat overengineered: it pretends to follow
the ordering rules when grabbing the message slot, using atomic
operations and all that, but does it incorrectly and unnecessarily.
The correct order would be to first set .msg_pending, then atomically
replace .message_type if it was zero, and then clear .msg_pending if
the previous step was successful. But this all is done in vcpu context
so the whole update looks atomic to the guest (it's assumed to only
access the message page from this cpu), and therefore can be done in
whatever order is most convenient (and is also the reason why the
incorrect order didn't trigger any bugs so far).
While at this, also switch to kvm_vcpu_{read,write}_guest_page, and drop
the no longer needed synic_clear_sint_msg_pending.
