KVM: x86: Handle triple fault in L2 without killing L1
Synthesize a nested VM-Exit if L2 triggers an emulated triple fault instead of exiting to userspace, which likely will kill L1. Any flow that does KVM_REQ_TRIPLE_FAULT is suspect, but the most common scenario for L2 killing L1 is if L0 (KVM) intercepts a contributory exception that is _not_intercepted by L1. E.g. if KVM is intercepting #GPs for the VMware backdoor, a #GP that occurs in L2 while vectoring an injected #DF will cause KVM to emulate triple fault.
