Subject: [PATCH 1/3] KVM: x86: Check lapic_in_kernel() before attempting to set a SynIC irq

When KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC{,2} is activated, KVM already checks for
irqchip_in_kernel() so normally SynIC irqs should never be set. It is,
however,  possible for a misbehaving VMM to write to SYNIC/STIMER MSRs
causing erroneous behavior.

The immediate issue being fixed is that kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic()
(kvm_irq_delivery_to_apic_fast()) crashes when called with
'irq.shorthand = APIC_DEST_SELF' and 'src == NULL'.
