Isaku Yamahata e6fb7d6eb4 KVM: Make hardware_enable_failed a local variable in the "enable all" path
Rework detecting hardware enabling errors to use a local variable in the
"enable all" path to track whether or not enabling was successful across
all CPUs.  Using a global variable complicates paths that enable hardware
only on the current CPU, e.g. kvm_resume() and kvm_online_cpu().

Opportunistically add a WARN if hardware enabling fails during
kvm_resume(), KVM is all kinds of hosed if CPU0 fails to enable hardware.
The WARN is largely futile in the current code, as KVM BUG()s on spurious
faults on VMX instructions, e.g. attempting to run a vCPU on CPU if
hardware enabling fails will explode.

But, the WARN may provide a breadcrumb to understand what went awry, and
someday KVM may fix one or both of those bugs, e.g. by finding a way to
eat spurious faults no matter the context (easier said than done due to
side effects of certain operations, e.g. Intel's VMCLEAR).
