KVM: x86: make KVM_REQ_NMI request iff NMI pending for vcpu
kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_set_vcpu_events() routine makes 'KVM_REQ_NMI'
request for a vcpu even when its 'events->nmi.pending' is zero.
Ex:
qemu_thread_start
kvm_vcpu_thread_fn
qemu_wait_io_event
qemu_wait_io_event_common
process_queued_cpu_work
do_kvm_cpu_synchronize_post_init/_reset
kvm_arch_put_registers
kvm_put_vcpu_events (cpu, level=[2|3])
This leads vCPU threads in QEMU to constantly acquire & release the
global mutex lock, delaying the guest boot due to lock contention.
Add check to make KVM_REQ_NMI request only if vcpu has NMI pending.
