I whined about this back in v2[*].  "exit to guest mode" is confusing becuase
virt terminology is "enter to guest" and "exit from guest", whereas the
kernel's terminology here is "exit from kernel to guest".

My past and current self still like XFER_TO_GUEST as the base terminology.

This loses the stat.signal_exits accounting.  Maybe this?

			if (r) {
				if (r == -EINTR)
					++vcpu->stat.signal_exits;
				return r;
			}
