xen/qspinlock: Don't kick CPU if IRQ is not initialized



The following commit:

  1fb3a8b2 ("xen/spinlock: Fix locking path engaging too soon under PVHVM.")

... moved the initalization of the kicker interrupt until after
native_cpu_up() is called.

However, when using qspinlocks, a CPU may try to kick another CPU that is
spinning (because it has not yet initialized its kicker interrupt), resulting
in the following crash during boot:

To fix this, only send the kick if the target CPU's interrupt has been
initialized. This check isn't racy, because the target is waiting for
the spinlock, so it won't have initialized the interrupt in the
meantime.
