KVM: VMX: Use arch_xchg() when processing PIR to avoid instrumentation
Use arch_xchg() when moving IRQs from the PIR to the vIRR, purely to avoid instrumentation so that KVM is compatible with the needs of posted MSI. This will allow extracting the core PIR logic to common code and sharing it between KVM and posted MSI handling.
