KVM: x86: Serialize writes to disabled_quirks using kvm->lock

Protect writes to disabled_quirks with kvm->lock to ensure KVM doesn't
clobber state in the unlikely scenario that userspace disables disparate
quirks from multiple tasks.  More importantly, this will allow wrapping
accesses with {READ,WRITE}_ONCE without "needing" to also guard the writer
with a useless and confusing READ_ONCE (since the RMW wouldn't be atomic
anyways).

Ideally, KVM would disallow disabling quirks once quirks are "live", but
that would be a potentially breaking userspace ABI change, and while all
existing quirks are fully live only after vCPUs have been created, several
MMU-related quirks, IGNORE_GUEST_PAT and SLOT_ZAP_ALL, are partially live
at all times.  Because populating MMUs requires a vCPU, the guest-visible
behavior of IGNORE_GUEST_PAT and SLOT_ZAP_ALL requires a vCPU, but for KVM
itself, processing the quirk (or not) has functional impact, i.e. for all
intents and purposes, KVM can't prevent those quirks from being disabled
after they've been consumed.
