KVM: x86: Fix nmi injection failure when vcpu got blocked
When spin_lock_irqsave() deadlock occurs inside the guest, vcpu threads, other than the lock-holding one, would enter into S state because of pvspinlock. Then inject NMI via libvirt API "inject-nmi", the NMI could not be injected into vm. The reason is: 1 It sets nmi_queued to 1 when calling ioctl KVM_NMI in qemu, and sets cpu->kvm_vcpu_dirty to true in do_inject_external_nmi() meanwhile. 2 It sets nmi_queued to 0 in process_nmi(), before entering guest, because cpu->kvm_vcpu_dirty is true. It's not enough just to check nmi_queued to decide whether to stay in vcpu_block() or not. NMI should be injected immediately at any situation. Add checking nmi_pending, and testing KVM_REQ_NMI replaces nmi_queued in vm_vcpu_has_events(). Do the same change for SMIs.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
