In earlier versions of kvm, 'kvm_run' is an independent structure
and is not included in the vcpu structure. At present, 'kvm_run'
is already included in the vcpu structure, so the parameter
'kvm_run' is redundant.

This patch simplify the function definition, removes the extra
'kvm_run' parameter, and extract it from the 'kvm_vcpu' structure
if necessary.

v2 change:
remove 'kvm_run' parameter and extract it from 'kvm_vcpu'

I don't know much about ARM but this also seems redundant,
kvm_handle_mmio_return() is also able to extruct 'struct kvm_run' from'
'struct kvm_vcpu'. This likely deserves it's own patch though.

Something like this (untested):

Overall, there is a large set of cleanups to be done when both the vcpu and the run
structures are passed as parameters at the same time. Just grepping the tree for
kvm_run is pretty instructive.
