KVM: VMX: Handle preemption timer fastpath
This patch implements a fastpath for the preemption timer vmexit. The vmexit
can be handled quickly so it can be performed with interrupts off and going
back directly to the guest.
Testing on SKX Server.
cyclictest in guest(w/o mwait exposed, adaptive advance lapic timer is default -1):
5540.5ns -> 4602ns 17%
kvm-unit-test/vmexit.flat:
w/o avanced timer:
tscdeadline_immed: 3028.5 -> 2494.75 17.6%
tscdeadline: 5765.7 -> 5285 8.3%
w/ adaptive advance timer default -1:
tscdeadline_immed: 3123.75 -> 2583 17.3%
tscdeadline: 4663.75 -> 4537 2.7%
