KVM: SVM: Drop vcpu_svm's pointless avic_backing_page field

Drop vcpu_svm's avic_backing_page pointer and instead grab the physical
address of KVM's vAPIC page directly from the source.  Getting a physical
address from a kernel virtual address is not an expensive operation, and
getting the physical address from a struct page is *more* expensive for
CONFIG_SPARSEMEM=y kernels.  Regardless, none of the paths that consume
the address are hot paths, i.e. shaving cycles is not a priority.

Eliminating the "cache" means KVM doesn't have to worry about the cache
being invalid, which will simplify a future fix when dealing with vCPU IDs
that are too big.

WARN if KVM attempts to allocate a vCPU's AVIC backing page without an
in-kernel local APIC.  avic_init_vcpu() bails early if the APIC is not
in-kernel, and KVM disallows enabling an in-kernel APIC after vCPUs have
been created, i.e. it should be impossible to reach
avic_init_backing_page() without the vAPIC being allocated.
