Subject: [PATCHv5 4/5] kvm: only sync when attention bits set

Commit eb0dc6d0368072236dcd086d7fdc17fd3c4574d4 introduced apic
attention bitmask but kvm still syncs lapic unconditionally.
As that commit suggested and in anticipation of adding more attention
bits, only sync lapic if(apic_attention).
