Sometimes a vCPU kick is following a pending request, even if @vcpu is
the running vCPU. It suffers from both rcuwait_wake_up() which has
rcu/memory barrier operations and cmpxchg(). Let's check vcpu->wait
before rcu_wait_wake_up() and whether @vcpu is the running vCPU before
cmpxchg() to tax cut this overhead.
We evaluate the kvm-unit-test/vmexit.flat on an Intel ICX box, most of the
scores can improve ~600 cpu cycles especially when APICv is disabled.

v1 -> v2:
* move checking running vCPU logic to kvm_vcpu_kick
* check rcuwait_active(&vcpu->wait) etc
