Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Update the variable naming in kvm_x86_ops.sched_in()

Update the variable with name 'kvm' in kvm_x86_ops.sched_in() to 'vcpu' to
avoid confusions. Variable naming in KVM has a clear convention that 'kvm'
refers to pointer of type 'struct kvm *', while 'vcpu' refers to pointer of
type 'struct kvm_vcpu *'.

Fix this 9-year old naming issue for fun.
