KVM: VMX: Enable io bitmaps to avoid IO port 0x80 VMEXITs
This patch enables IO bitmaps control on vmx and unmask the 0x80 port to
avoid VMEXITs caused by accessing port 0x80. 0x80 is used as delays (see
include/asm/io.h), and handling VMEXITs on its access is unnecessary but
slows things down. This patch improves kernel build test at around
3%~5%.
Because every VM uses the same io bitmap, it is shared between
all VMs rather than a per-VM data structure.
