[PATCH RFC 1/2] KVM: nVMX: clear PIN_BASED_POSTED_INTR from nested pinbased_ctls only when apicv is globally disabled

[Vitaly Kuznetsov]

When apicv is disabled on a vCPU (e.g. by enabling KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC*),
nothing happens to VMX MSRs on the already existing vCPUs, however, all new
ones are created with PIN_BASED_POSTED_INTR filtered out. This is very
confusing and results in the following picture inside the guest:

$ rdmsr -ax 0x48d
ff00000016
7f00000016
7f00000016
7f00000016

This is observed with QEMU and 4-vCPU guest: QEMU creates vCPU0, does
KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC2 and then creates the remaining three.

L1 hypervisor may only check CPU0's controls to find out what features
are available and it will be very confused later. Switch to setting
PIN_BASED_POSTED_INTR control based on global 'enable_apicv' setting.
