[PATCH] KVM: IOAPIC: only access APIC registers one dword at a time

[Xiao Guangrong]

The IOAPIC spec says:

When accessing these registers, accesses must be done one dword at a time.
For example, software should never access byte 2 from the Data register before
accessing bytes 0 and 1. The hardware will not attempt to recover from a bad
programming model in this case.

So, this patch removes other width access
