Fix a longstanding bug where KVM fails to decrement kvm_has_noapic_vcpu if vCPU creation ultimately fails. This is obviously way more than just a fix, but (a) in all likelihood no real users are affected by this, (b) the absolutely worst case scenario is minor performance degredation, and (c) I'm not at all convinced that kvm_has_noapic_vcpu provides any performance benefits.
