KVM: x86: Handle APICv updates for APIC "mode" changes via request
Use KVM_REQ_UPDATE_APICV to react to APIC "mode" changes, i.e. to handle the APIC being hardware enabled/disabled and/or x2APIC being toggled. There is no need to immediately update APICv state, the only requirement is that APICv be updating prior to the next VM-Enter. Making a request will allow piggybacking KVM_REQ_UPDATE_APICV to "inhibit" the APICv memslot when x2APIC is enabled. Doing that directly from kvm_lapic_set_base() isn't feasible as KVM's SRCU must not be held when modifying memslots (to avoid deadlock), and may or may not be held when kvm_lapic_set_base() is called, i.e. KVM can't do the right thing without tracking that is rightly buried behind CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y.
