KVM: LAPIC: Trace LAPIC timer expiration on every vmentry



In commit ec0671d5 ("KVM: LAPIC: Delay trace_kvm_wait_lapic_expire
tracepoint to after vmexit", 2019-06-04), trace_kvm_wait_lapic_expire
was moved after guest_exit_irqoff() because invoking tracepoints within
kvm_guest_enter/kvm_guest_exit caused a lockdep splat.

These days this is not necessary, because commit 87fa7f3e ("x86/kvm:
Move context tracking where it belongs", 2020-07-09) restricted
the RCU extended quiescent state to be closer to vmentry/vmexit.
Moving the tracepoint back to __kvm_wait_lapic_expire is more accurate,
because it will be reported even if vcpu_enter_guest causes multiple
vmentries via the IPI/Timer fast paths, and it allows the removal of
advance_expire_delta.
