KVM: x86: Detect and Initialize AVIC support
This patch introduces AVIC-related data structure, and AVIC
initialization code.
There are three main data structures for AVIC:
* Virtual APIC (vAPIC) backing page (per-VCPU)
* Physical APIC ID table (per-VM)
* Logical APIC ID table (per-VM)
Currently, AVIC is disabled by default. Users can manually
enable AVIC via kernel boot option kvm-amd.avic=1 or during
kvm-amd module loading with parameter avic=1.
