Register KVM's cpuhp and syscore callback when enabling virtualization
in hardware instead of registering the callbacks during initialization,
and let the CPU up/down framework invoke the inner enable/disable
functions. Registering the callbacks during initialization makes things
more complex than they need to be, as KVM needs to be very careful about
handling races between enabling CPUs being onlined/offlined and hardware
being enabled/disabled.
Intel TDX support will require KVM to enable virtualization during KVM
initialization, i.e. will add another wrinkle to things, at which point
sorting out the potential races with kvm_usage_count would become even
more complex.
Note, using the cpuhp framework has a subtle behavioral change: enabling
will be done serially across all CPUs, whereas KVM currently sends an IPI
to all CPUs in parallel. While serializing virtualization enabling could
create undesirable latency, the issue is limited to the 0=>1 transition of
VM creation. And even that can be mitigated, e.g. by letting userspace
force virtualization to be enabled when KVM is initialized.
