Re: [PATCH v6 3/9] KVM: x86: Stuff vCPU's PAT with default value at RESET, not creation

Move the stuffing of the vCPU's PAT to the architectural "default" value
from kvm_arch_vcpu_create() to kvm_vcpu_reset(), guarded by !init_event,
to better capture that the default value is the value "Following Power-up
or Reset".  E.g. setting PAT only during creation would break if KVM were
to expose a RESET ioctl() to userspace (which is unlikely, but that's not
a good reason to have unintuitive code).

No functional change.
