KVM: s390: Ensure kvm_arch_no_poll() is read once when blocking vCPU
Wrap s390's halt_poll_max_steal with READ_ONCE and snapshot the result of kvm_arch_no_poll() in kvm_vcpu_block() to avoid a mostly-theoretical, largely benign bug on s390 where the result of kvm_arch_no_poll() could change due to userspace modifying halt_poll_max_steal while the vCPU is blocking. The bug is largely benign as it will either cause KVM to skip updating halt-polling times (no_poll toggles false=>true) or to update halt-polling times with a slightly flawed block_ns. Note, READ_ONCE is unnecessary in the current code, add it in case the arch hook is ever inlined, and to provide a hint that userspace can change the param at will.
