Subject: [PATCH v2 1/6] KVM: Register cpuhp and syscore callbacks when
 enabling hardware

Register KVM's cpuhp and syscore callback when enabling virtualization
in hardware instead of registering the callbacks during initialization,
and let the CPU up/down framework invoke the inner enable/disable
functions.  Registering the callbacks during initialization makes things
more complex than they need to be, as KVM needs to be very careful about
handling races between enabling CPUs being onlined/offlined and hardware
being enabled/disabled.

Intel TDX support will require KVM to enable virtualization during KVM
initialization, i.e. will add another wrinkle to things, at which point
sorting out the potential races with kvm_usage_count would become even
more complex.

Use a dedicated mutex to guard kvm_usage_count, as taking kvm_lock outside
cpu_hotplug_lock is disallowed.  Ideally, KVM would *always* take kvm_lock
outside cpu_hotplug_lock, but KVM x86 takes kvm_lock in several notifiers
that may be called under cpus_read_lock().  kvmclock_cpufreq_notifier() in
particular has callchains that are infeasible to guarantee will never be
called with cpu_hotplug_lock held.  And practically speaking, using a
dedicated mutex is a non-issue as the cost is a few bytes for all of KVM.

Note, using the cpuhp framework has a subtle behavioral change: enabling
will be done serially across all CPUs, whereas KVM currently sends an IPI
to all CPUs in parallel.  While serializing virtualization enabling could
create undesirable latency, the issue is limited to creation of KVM's
first VM, and even that can be mitigated, e.g. by letting userspace force
virtualization to be enabled when KVM is initialized.
