KVM: VMX: fix vmwrite to invalid VMCS
fpu_activate is called outside of vcpu_load(), which means it should not
touch VMCS, but fpu_activate needs to. Avoid the call by moving it to a
point where we know that the guest needs eager FPU and VMCS is loaded.
This will get rid of the following trace
vmwrite error: reg 6800 value 0 (err 1)
[<ffffffff8162035b>] dump_stack+0x19/0x1b
[<ffffffffa046c701>] vmwrite_error+0x2c/0x2e [kvm_intel]
[<ffffffffa045f26f>] vmcs_writel+0x1f/0x30 [kvm_intel]

[<ffffffffa0560b91>] kvm_arch_vcpu_create+0x51/0x70 [kvm]

[<ffffffff811e4a51>] SyS_ioctl+0xa1/0xc0
[<ffffffff81630949>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
(Note: we also unconditionally activate FPU in vmx_vcpu_reset(), so the
removed code added nothing.)
