x86, vtd: [CVE-2011-1898] Protect against malicious MSIs from untrusted devices.

In the absence of VT-d interrupt remapping support, a device can send
arbitrary APIC messages to host CPUs. One class of attack that results
is to confuse the hypervisor by delivering asynchronous interrupts to
vectors that are expected to handle only synchronous
traps/exceptions.

We block this class of attack by:
(1) setting APIC.TPR=0x10, to block all interrupts below vector
0x20. This blocks delivery to all architectural exception vectors.
(2) checking APIC.ISR[vec] for vectors 0x80 (fast syscall) and 0x82
(hypercall). In these cases we BUG if we detect we are handling a
hardware interrupt -- turning a potentially more severe infiltration
into a straightforward system crash (i.e, DoS).

Thanks to Invisible Things Lab <http://www.invisiblethingslab.com>
for discovery and detailed investigation of this attack.
