[PATCH v2 3/4] KVM: X86: Fix vCPU preempted state from guest's point of view

[Wanpeng Li]

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpengli@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Commit 66570e966dd9 (kvm: x86: only provide PV features if enabled in guest's 
CPUID) avoids to access pv tlb shootdown host side logic when this pv feature 
is not exposed to guest, however, kvm_steal_time.preempted not only leveraged 
by pv tlb shootdown logic but also mitigate the lock holder preemption issue. 
>From guest's point of view, vCPU is always preempted since we lose the reset 
of kvm_steal_time.preempted before vmentry if pv tlb shootdown feature is not 
exposed. This patch fixes it by clearing kvm_steal_time.preempted before 
vmentry.
