Subject: [PATCH 4.14 100/110] KVM: x86: move LAPIC initialization after VMCS creation

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@...hat.com>

commit 0b2e9904c15963e715d33e5f3f1387f17d19333a upstream.

The initial reset of the local APIC is performed before the VMCS has been
created, but it tries to do a vmwrite:

 vmwrite error: reg 810 value 4a00 (err 18944)
 CPU: 54 PID: 38652 Comm: qemu-kvm Tainted: G        W I      4.16.0-0.rc2.git0.1.fc28.x86_64 #1
 Hardware name: Intel Corporation S2600CW/S2600CW, BIOS SE5C610.86B.01.01.0003.090520141303 09/05/2014
 Call Trace:
  vmx_set_rvi [kvm_intel]
  vmx_hwapic_irr_update [kvm_intel]
  kvm_lapic_reset [kvm]
  kvm_create_lapic [kvm]
  kvm_arch_vcpu_init [kvm]
  kvm_vcpu_init [kvm]
  vmx_create_vcpu [kvm_intel]
  kvm_vm_ioctl [kvm]

Move it later, after the VMCS has been created.
