KVM: Avoid re-reading kvm->max_halt_poll_ns during halt-polling

Avoid re-reading kvm->max_halt_poll_ns multiple times during
halt-polling except when it is explicitly useful, e.g. to check if the
max time changed across a halt. kvm->max_halt_poll_ns can be changed at
any time by userspace via KVM_CAP_HALT_POLL.

This bug is unlikely to cause any serious side-effects. In the worst
case one halt polls for shorter or longer than it should, and then is
fixed up on the next halt. Furthmore, this is still possible since
kvm->max_halt_poll_ns are not synchronized with halts.
