Subject: [RFC 1/8]KVM: fix bugs in kvm sched integration patch

fix some bugs in kvm-sch patch.
1. vmcs_readl/vmcs_writel are called with preempt enabled
2. preempt_count check doesn't make sense with preempt disabled
3. vmx_cpu_run doesn't handle error correctly and kvm_mmu_reload might
sleep with mutex changes, so I move it above.
