The CPU STARTING section doesn't allow callbacks to fail. Move KVM's
hotplug callback to ONLINE section so that it can abort onlining a CPU in
certain cases to avoid potentially breaking VMs running on existing CPUs.
For example, when KVM fails to enable hardware virtualization on the
hotplugged CPU.

Place KVM's hotplug state before CPUHP_AP_SCHED_WAIT_EMPTY as it ensures
when offlining a CPU, all user tasks and non-pinned kernel tasks have left
the CPU, i.e. there cannot be a vCPU task around. So, it is safe for KVM's
CPU offline callback to disable hardware virtualization at that point.
Likewise, KVM's online callback can enable hardware virtualization before
any vCPU task gets a chance to run on hotplugged CPUs.

Drop kvm_x86_check_processor_compatibility()'s WARN that IRQs are
disabled, as the ONLINE section runs with IRQs disabled.  The WARN wasn't
intended to be a requirement, e.g. disabling preemption is sufficient,
the IRQ thing was purely an aggressive sanity check since the helper was
only ever invoked via SMP function call.

Rename KVM's CPU hotplug callbacks accordingly.
