We found that it may cost more than 20 milliseconds very accidentally
to enable cap of KVM_CAP_SPLIT_IRQCHIP on a host which has many vms
already.

The reason is that when vmm(qemu/CloudHypervisor) invokes
KVM_CAP_SPLIT_IRQCHIP kvm will call synchronize_srcu_expedited() and
might_sleep and kworker of srcu may cost some delay during this period.

As we have set up empty irq routing when creating vm, so this is no
need now.

empty_routing is unused after this patch and can+should be removed, e.g.

arch/x86/kvm/irq_comm.c:398:43: error: ‘empty_routing’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-const-variable=]
  398 | static const struct kvm_irq_routing_entry empty_routing[] = {};

I'll fix this up when applying, too.
