[PATCH v3 12/13] ARM: KVM: vgic: reduce the number of vcpu kick

From: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier at arm.com>

If we have level interrupts already programmed to fire on a vcpu,
there is no reason to kick it after injecting a new interrupt,
as we're guaranteed that we'll exit when the level interrupt will
be EOId (VGIC_LR_EOI is set).

The exit will force a reload of the VGIC, injecting the new interrupts.
