Subject: [PATCH v3 11/11] KVM: SVM: allow to avoid not needed updates to is_running
Allow optionally to make KVM not update is_running unless it is
functionally needed which is only when a vCPU halts,
or is in the guest mode.
This means security wise that if a vCPU is scheduled out,
other vCPUs could still send doorbell messages to the
last physical CPU where this vCPU was last running.
This in theory can be considered less secure, thus
this option is not enabled by default.
The option is avic_doorbell_strict and is true by
default, setting it to false allows this relaxed
non strict mode.
