Subject: [RFC PATCH 33/86] entry/kvm: handle TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY

Executing in xfer_to_guest_mode_work() we are free of kernel
entanglements that cannot span preemption.

So, handle TIF_NEED_RESCHED_LAZY alongside TIF_NEED_RESCHED.

Also, while we at it, remove the explicit check for need_resched()
in the exit condition as that is already covered in the loop
condition.
