Subject: KVM: x86: Purge "highest ISR" cache when updating APICv state

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 97a71c444a147ae41c7d0ab5b3d855d7f762f3ed upstream.

Purge the "highest ISR" cache when updating APICv state on a vCPU.  The
cache must not be used when APICv is active as hardware may emulate EOIs
(and other operations) without exiting to KVM.

This fixes a bug where KVM will effectively block IRQs in perpetuity due
to the "highest ISR" never getting reset if APICv is activated on a vCPU
while an IRQ is in-service.  Hardware emulates the EOI and KVM never gets
a chance to update its cache.
