x86/KVM/VMX: Replace 'vmx_l1d_flush_always' with 'vmx_l1d_flush_cond'

commit 427362a142441f08051369db6fbe7f61c73b3dca upstream

The vmx_l1d_flush_always static key is only ever evaluated if
vmx_l1d_should_flush is enabled. In that case however, there are only two
L1d flushing modes possible: "always" and "conditional".

The "conditional" mode's implementation tends to require more sophisticated
logic than the "always" mode.

Avoid inverted logic by replacing the 'vmx_l1d_flush_always' static key
with a 'vmx_l1d_flush_cond' one.

There is no change in functionality.
