Copying the entire struct apic to snapshot two functions is funky,
explicitly capturing the two functions would be more intuitive.

Tangentially related, kvm_setup_pv_ipi() can be annotated __init,
which means the function snapshots can be __ro_after_init.

That being said, can't we just remove kvm_send_ipi_all() and
kvm_send_ipi_allbutself()? AFAICT, the variations that lead to shorthand
are only used when apic_use_ipi_shorthand is true. If that isn't the
case, fixing the callers in the APIC code seems like the correct thing to
do.
