KVM: VMX: Dont' send posted IRQ if vCPU == this vCPU and vCPU is IN_GUEST_MODE
When delivering a virtual interrupt, don't actually send a posted interrupt
if the target vCPU is also the currently running vCPU and is IN_GUEST_MODE,
in which case the interrupt is being sent from a VM-Exit fastpath and the
core run loop in vcpu_enter_guest() will manually move the interrupt from
the PIR to vmcs.GUEST_RVI. IRQs are disabled while IN_GUEST_MODE, thus
there's no possibility of the virtual interrupt being sent from anything
other than KVM, i.e. KVM won't suppress a wake event from an IRQ handler
(see commit
fdba608f15e2, "KVM: VMX: Wake vCPU when delivering posted IRQ
even if vCPU == this vCPU").
Eliding the posted interrupt restores the performance provided by the
combination of commits
379a3c8ee444 ("KVM: VMX: Optimize posted-interrupt
delivery for timer fastpath") and
26efe2fd92e5 ("KVM: VMX: Handle
preemption timer fastpath").
Thanks Sean for better comments.
