This patch adds support for split IRQ chip mode. When
KVM_CAP_SPLIT_IRQCHIP is enabled:
1.) The PIC, PIT, and IOAPIC are implemented in userspace while
the LAPIC is implemented by KVM.
2.) The software IOAPIC delivers interrupts to the KVM LAPIC via
kvm_set_irq. Interrupt delivery is configured via the MSI routing
table, for which routes are reserved in target-i386/kvm.c then
configured in hw/intc/ioapic.c
3.) KVM delivers IOAPIC EOIs via a new exit KVM_EXIT_IOAPIC_EOI,
which is handled in target-i386/kvm.c and relayed to the software
IOAPIC via ioapic_eoi_broadcast.

The commit 317b0a6d8 fixed an issue which caused by the outdated
env->tsc value, but the fix lead to 'cpu_synchronize_all_states()'
called twice during live migration. The 'cpu_synchronize_all_states()'
takes about 130us for a VM which has 4 vcpus, it's a bit expensive.
Synchronize the whole CPU context just for updating env->tsc is too
wasting, this patch use a new function to update the env->tsc.
Comparing to 'cpu_synchronize_all_states()', it only takes about 20us.

The property can take values on, off or auto. The default is "off"
for KVM and pre-2.4 machines, otherwise "auto" (which makes it
available on TCG or on new-enough kernels).

Now that we have a CPU object with a reset method, it is better to
keep the KVM reset close to the CPU reset. Using qemu_register_reset
as we do now keeps them far apart.
With this patch, PPC no longer calls the kvm_arch_ function, so
it can get removed there. Other arches call it from their CPU
reset handler, and the function gets an ARMCPU/X86CPU/S390CPU.
Note that ARM- and s390-specific functions are called kvm_arm_*
and kvm_s390_*, while x86-specific functions are called kvm_arch_*.
That follows the convention used by the different architectures.
Changing that is the topic of a separate patch.

These helpers abstract the interaction of upcoming pci-assign with the
KVM kernel services. Put them under i386 only as other archs will
implement device pass-through via VFIO and not this classic interface.

kvm_allows_irq0_override() is a totally x86 specific concept:
move it to the target-specific source file where it belongs.
This means we need a new header file for the prototype:
kvm_i386.h, in line with the existing kvm_ppc.h.
While we are moving it, fix the return type to be 'bool' rather
than 'int'.
