KVM: x86: Use rw_semaphore for APICv lock to allow vCPU parallelism
Use a rw_semaphore instead of a mutex to coordinate APICv updates so that
vCPUs responding to requests can take the lock for read and run in
parallel. Using a mutex forces serialization of vCPUs even though
kvm_vcpu_update_apicv() only touches data local to that vCPU or is
protected by a different lock, e.g. SVM's ir_list_lock.
