    x86/hap: be more selective with assisted TLB flush
    
    When doing an assisted flush on HAP the purpose of the
    on_selected_cpus is just to trigger a vmexit on remote CPUs that are
    in guest context, and hence just using is_vcpu_dirty_cpu is too lax,
    also check that the vCPU is running. Due to the lazy context switching
    done by Xen dirty_cpu won't always be cleared when the guest vCPU is
    not running, and hence relying on is_running allows more fine grained
    control of whether the vCPU is actually running.
    
    I've measured the time of the non-local branch of flush_area_mask
    inside the shim running with 32vCPUs over 100000 executions and
    averaged the result on a large Westmere system (80 ways total). The
    figures where fetched during the boot of a SLES 11 PV guest. The
    results are as follow (less is better):
    
    Non assisted flush with x2APIC:      112406ns
    Assisted flush without this patch:   820450ns
    Assisted flush with this patch:        8330ns
    
    While there also pass NULL as the data parameter of on_selected_cpus,
    the dummy handler doesn't consume the data in any way.
