40487c680d KVM: deliver PIC interrupt only to vcpu0 
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

1b9778dae7 KVM: Keep track of missed timer irq injections 
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.

b6958ce44a KVM: Emulate hlt in the kernel 
By sleeping in the kernel when hlt is executed, we simplify the in-kernel
guest interrupt path considerably.

1fd4f2a5ed KVM: In-kernel I/O APIC model 
This allows in-kernel host-side device drivers to raise guest interrupts
without going to userspace.

[avi: fix level-triggered interrupt redelivery on eoi]
[avi: add missing #include]
[avi: avoid redelivery of edge-triggered interrupt]
[avi: implement polarity]
[avi: don't deliver edge-triggered interrupts when unmasking]
[avi: fix host oops on invalid guest access]

97222cc831 KVM: Emulate local APIC in kernel 
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.
