KVM: arm/arm64: Enable adaptative WFE trapping
Trapping blocking WFE is extremely beneficial in situations where the system is oversubscribed, as it allows another thread to run while being blocked. In a non-oversubscribed environment, this is the complete opposite, and trapping WFE is just unnecessary overhead. Let's only enable WFE trapping if the CPU has more than a single task to run (that is, more than just the vcpu thread).
