Subject: [PATCH] KVM: halt-polling: poll if emulated lapic timer will fire soon

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@...mail.com>

If an emulated lapic timer will fire soon(in the scope of 10us the 
base of dynamic halt-polling, lower-end of message passing workload 
latency TCP_RR's poll time < 10us) we can treat it as a short halt, 
and poll to wait it fire, the fire callback apic_timer_fn() will set 
KVM_REQ_PENDING_TIMER, and this flag will be check during busy poll. 
This can avoid context switch overhead and the latency which we wake 
up vCPU.

iperf TCP get ~6% bandwidth improvement.
