KVM: Fix reboot on Intel hosts
When we reboot, we disable vmx extensions or otherwise INIT gets blocked.
If a task on another cpu hits a vmx instruction, it will fault if vmx is
disabled. We trap that to avoid a nasty oops and spin until the reboot
completes.
Problem is, we sleep with interrupts disabled. This blocks smp_send_stop()
from running, and the reboot process halts.
Fix by enabling interrupts before spinning.
