KVM: Avoid re-reading kvm->max_halt_poll_ns during halt-polling
Avoid re-reading kvm->max_halt_poll_ns multiple times during halt-polling except when it is explicitly useful, e.g. to check if the max time changed across a halt. kvm->max_halt_poll_ns can be changed at any time by userspace via KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL. This bug is unlikely to cause any serious side-effects. In the worst case one halt polls for shorter or longer than it should, and then is fixed up on the next halt. Furthmore, this is still possible since kvm->max_halt_poll_ns are not synchronized with halts.
