kvm:x86:lapic: undo RH's breaking hyperv synic auto_eoi
RedHat has backported mainline

KVM: lapic: do not scan IRR when delivering an interrupt
On interrupt delivery the PPR can only grow (except for auto-EOI),
so it is impossible that non-auto-EOI interrupt delivery results
in KVM_REQ_EVENT. We can therefore use __apic_update_ppr.

However, they added a small change, documented in brackets as
[RHEL: no auto_eoi_bitmap because there's no Hyper-V synthetic
interrupts support]
What this little change did was to *silently* break Hyper-V synthetic
interrupts with AutoEOI *only*, making our vmbus-enabled VMs to hang
early at boot. (If they really wanted to disable Hyper-V SynIC they
just needed a one-liner to drop the corresponding capability from the
list of supported ones.)

Undo this breakage.
