Wanpeng Li a9ab13ff6e KVM: X86: Improve latency for single target IPI fastpath
IPI and Timer cause the main MSRs write vmexits in cloud environment
observation, let's optimize virtual IPI latency more aggressively to
inject target IPI as soon as possible.

Running kvm-unit-tests/vmexit.flat IPI testing on SKX server, disable
adaptive advance lapic timer and adaptive halt-polling to avoid the
interference, this patch can give another 7% improvement.

w/o fastpath   -> x86.c fastpath      4238 -> 3543  16.4%
x86.c fastpath -> vmx.c fastpath      3543 -> 3293     7%
w/o fastpath   -> vmx.c fastpath      4238 -> 3293  22.3%
