This seems to be the right thing to do, however, the amount of code
between kvm_x86_ops.run() and kvm_x86_ops.handle_exit() is non-trivial,
hope it won't blow up in testing...

Reviewed-by: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com>

One more thing:

VMX version does

        vmx_complete_interrupts(vmx);
        if (is_guest_mode(vcpu))
                return EXIT_FASTPATH_NONE;

and on SVM we analyze is_guest_mode() inside
svm_exit_handlers_fastpath() - should we also change that for
conformity?
