[PATCH 2/3] KVM: send IPI to vcpu only when it's in guest mode

[Xiao Guangrong]

We can interrupt the vcpu only when it's running in guest mode
to reduce IPI.

It looks like only ia64 and x86 need to send IPI to other vcpus, so
i only add the implementation of 'vcpu->guest_mode' in ia64, but i
don't know ia64 well, please point out the right way for me if the
implementation is incorrect

And ia64 is not tested since i don't have ia64 box
