[PATCH] KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Use msgsync for hypervisor doorbells on POWER9

When msgsnd is used for IPIs to other cores, msgsync must be executed by
the target to order stores performed on the source before its msgsnd
(provided the source executes the appropriate sync).

Hi,
I found this by inspection only and don't have a way to test it
(I have no POWER9 KVM set up yet). I don't know the KVM interrupt
code very well, so it might not be the right way to fix it. Flames
welcome.
Thanks,
Nick
