x86/kvm: Prefer native qspinlock for dedicated vCPUs irrespective of PV_UNHALT
The commit
b2798ba0b876 ("KVM: X86: Choose qspinlock when dedicated
physical CPUs are available") states that when PV_DEDICATED=1
(vCPU has dedicated pCPU), qspinlock should be preferred regardless of
PV_UNHALT. However, the current implementation doesn't reflect this: when
PV_UNHALT=0, we still use virt_spin_lock() even with dedicated pCPUs.
This is suboptimal because:
1. Native qspinlocks should outperform virt_spin_lock() for dedicated
vCPUs irrespective of HALT exiting
2. virt_spin_lock() should only be preferred when vCPUs may be preempted
(non-dedicated case)
So reorder the PV spinlock checks to:
1. First handle dedicated pCPU case (disable virt_spin_lock_key)
2. Second check single CPU, and nopvspin configuration
3. Only then check PV_UNHALT support
This ensures we always use native qspinlock for dedicated vCPUs, delivering
pretty performance gains at high contention levels.
