[PATCH] kvm/x86: check KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH with irqs disabled

[Joerg Roedel]

For KVM remote TLB flushes we need to check the KVM_REQ_TLB_FLUSH
request flag when the irqs are already disabled. Otherwise there is a
small window of time for a race condition where we may enter a guest
without doing a requested TLB flush.
