KVM: Fix race between nmi injection and enabling nmi window
The interrupt injection logic looks something like if an nmi is pending, and nmi injection allowed inject nmi if an nmi is pending request exit on nmi window the problem is that "nmi is pending" can be set asynchronously by the PIT; if it happens to fire between the two if statements, we will request an nmi window even though nmi injection is allowed. On SVM, this has disasterous results, since it causes eflags.TF to be set in random guest code. The fix is simple; make nmi_pending synchronous using the standard vcpu->requests mechanism; this ensures the code above is completely synchronous wrt nmi_pending.
