[PATCH v2 1/2] x86/kvm/async_pf: Use separate percpu variable to track the enabling of asyncpf

[Xiaoyao Li <xiaoyao.li@xxxxxxxxx>]

Refer to commit fd10cde9294f ("KVM paravirt: Add async PF initialization
to PV guest") and commit 344d9588a9df ("KVM: Add PV MSR to enable
asynchronous page faults delivery"). It turns out that at the time when
asyncpf was introduced, the purpose was defining the shared PV data 'struct
kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data' with the size of 64 bytes. However, it made a mistake
and defined the size to 68 bytes, which failed to make fit in a cache line
and made the code inconsistent with the documentation.

Below justification quoted from Sean[*]

  KVM (the host side) has *never* read kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled, and
  the documentation clearly states that enabling is based solely on the
  bit in the synthetic MSR.

  So rather than update the documentation, fix the goof by removing the
  enabled filed and use the separate percpu variable instread.
  KVM-as-a-host obviously doesn't enforce anything or consume the size,
  and changing the header will only affect guests that are rebuilt against
  the new header, so there's no chance of ABI breakage between KVM and its
  guests. The only possible breakage is if some other hypervisor is
  emulating KVM's async #PF (LOL) and relies on the guest to set
  kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data.enabled. But (a) I highly doubt such a hypervisor
  exists, (b) that would arguably be a violation of KVM's "spec", and
  (c) the worst case scenario is that the guest would simply lose async
  #PF functionality.
