Override the Processor Trace (PT) interrupt handler for guest mode if and
only if PT is configured for host+guest mode, i.e. is being used
independently by both host and guest. If PT is configured for system
mode, the host fully controls PT and must handle all events.

Emm, it's still buggy.

The guest "unknown NMI" from the host Intel PT can still be reproduced
after the following operation:

rmmod kvm_intel
modprobe kvm-intel pt_mode=1 ept=1
rmmod kvm_intel
modprobe kvm-intel pt_mode=1 ept=0

Since the handle_intel_pt_intr is not reset to NULL in kvm_arch_hardware_unsetup(),
and the previous function pointer still exists in the generic KVM data structure.

But I have to say that this fix is much better than the one I proposed [1].
