KVM: Obey kvm.halt_poll_ns in VMs not using KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL
Obey kvm.halt_poll_ns in VMs not using KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL on every halt, rather than just sampling the module parameter when the VM is first created. This restore the original behavior of kvm.halt_poll_ns for VMs that have not opted into KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL. Notably, this change restores the ability for admins to disable or change the maximum halt-polling time system wide for VMs not using KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL.
