    ms/KVM: x86: move steal time initialization to vcpu entry time
    
    As reported at https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1494350,
    it is possible to have vcpu->arch.st.last_steal initialized
    from a thread other than vcpu thread, say the iothread, via
    KVM_SET_MSRS.
    
    Which can cause an overflow later (when subtracting from vcpu threads
    sched_info.run_delay).
    
    To avoid that, move steal time accumulation to vcpu entry time,
    before copying steal time data to guest.
