KVM: selftests: Relax assertion on HLT exits if CPU supports Idle HLT



If the CPU supports Idle HLT, which elides HLT VM-Exits if the vCPU has an
unmasked pending IRQ or NMI, relax the xAPIC IPI test's assertion on the
number of HLT exits to only require that the number of exits is less than
or equal to the number of HLT instructions that were executed.  I.e. don't
fail the test if Idle HLT does what it's supposed to do.

Note, unfortunately there's no way to determine if *KVM* supports Idle HLT,
as this_cpu_has() checks raw CPU support, and kvm_cpu_has() checks what can
be exposed to L1, i.e. the latter would check if KVM supports nested Idle
HLT.  But, since the assert is purely bonus coverage, checking for CPU
support is good enough.
