x86/kvm: Restrict ASYNC_PF to user space

The async page fault injection into kernel space creates more problems than
it solves. The host has absolutely no knowledge about the state of the
guest if the fault happens in CPL0. The only restriction for the host is
interrupt disabled state. If interrupts are enabled in the guest then the
exception can hit arbitrary code. The HALT based wait in non-preemotible
code is a hacky replacement for a proper hypercall.

For the ongoing work to restrict instrumentation and make the RCU idle
interaction well defined the required extra work for supporting async
pagefault in CPL0 is just not justified and creates complexity for a
dubious benefit.

The CPL3 injection is well defined and does not cause any issues as it is
more or less the same as a regular page fault from CPL3.
