    x86/vLAPIC: prevent undue recursion of vlapic_error()
    
    With the error vector set to an illegal value, the function invoking
    vlapic_set_irq() would bring execution back here, with the non-recursive
    lock already held. Avoid the call in this case, merely further updating
    ESR (if necessary).
    
    This is XSA-462 / CVE-2024-45817.
