kvm: x86: svm: Fix NULL pointer dereference when AVIC not enabled

Launching VM w/ AVIC disabled together with pass-through device
results in NULL pointer dereference bug with the following call trace.

    RIP: 0010:svm_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl+0x17e/0x1a0 [kvm_amd]

    Call Trace:
     kvm_vcpu_update_apicv+0x44/0x60 [kvm]
     kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x3f4/0x1c80 [kvm]
     kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x3d8/0x650 [kvm]

     do_syscall_64+0x57/0x190
     entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9

Investigation shows that this is due to the uninitialized usage of
struct vapu_svm.ir_list in the svm_set_pi_irte_mode(), which is
called from svm_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl().

The ir_list is initialized only if AVIC is enabled. So, fixes by
adding a check if AVIC is enabled in the svm_refresh_apicv_exec_ctrl().
