[PATCH v6 08/11] x86, kvm/x86.c: support vcpu preempted check

[Pan Xinhui <xinhui.pan@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Support the vcpu_is_preempted() functionality under KVM. This will
enhance lock performance on overcommitted hosts (more runnable vcpus
than physical cpus in the system) as doing busy waits for preempted
vcpus will hurt system performance far worse than early yielding.

Use one field of struct kvm_steal_time ::preempted to indicate that if
one vcpu is running or not.
