[PATCHv2] kvm: optimize ISR lookups

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

We perform ISR lookups twice: during interrupt
injection and on EOI. Typical workloads only have
a single bit set there. So we can avoid ISR scans by
1. counting bits as we set/clear them in ISR
2. if count is 1, caching the vector number
3. if count != 1, invalidating the cache

The real purpose of this is enabling PV EOI
which needs to quickly validate the vector.
But non PV guests might also benefit.

I am well aware of Thomas and Peter's suggestion of reworking APIC
register handling in kvm instead of adding a cache like this patch does.

This revision does *not* address that comment yet: it only corrects a
bug in the original patch.

Posting in this form for ease of testing.

Changes from v1:
	replace ASSERT by BUG_ON, correcting inverted logic
