KVM: VMX: Fix kvm_set_shared_msr() called in preemptible context
kvm_set_shared_msr() may not be called in preemptible context, but vmx_set_msr() does so: BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: qemu-kvm/22713 caller is kvm_set_shared_msr+0x32/0xa0 [kvm] Pid: 22713, comm: qemu-kvm Not tainted 3.4.0-rc3+ #39 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8131fa82>] debug_smp_processor_id+0xe2/0x100 [<ffffffffa0328ae2>] kvm_set_shared_msr+0x32/0xa0 [kvm] [<ffffffffa03a103b>] vmx_set_msr+0x28b/0x2d0 [kvm_intel] ... Making kvm_set_shared_msr() work in preemptible is cleaner, but it's used in the fast path. Making two variants is overkill, so this patch just disables preemption around the call.
