KVM: Add VT-x machine check support v4

VT-x needs an explicit MC vector intercept to handle machine checks in the
hypervisor.

It also has a special option to catch machine checks that happen
during VT entry.

Do these interceptions and forward them to the Linux machine check
handler. Make it always look like user space is interrupted because
the machine check handler treats kernel/user space differently.

Thanks to Huang Ying and Jiang Yunhong for help and testing.


Ack, thanks. Stable boys, please use this instead of the patch from mainline and the two patches it dragged in.
