I think event_data should be reset to 0 in kvm_clear_exception_queue().
Otherwise, ex->event_data may be stale here, i.e., the event_data from the
previous event may be injected along with the next event.

If userspace saves guest events (via kvm_vcpu_ioctl_x86_get_vcpu_events())
right after an event is requeued, event_data will be lost (as that uAPI only
saves the payload and KVM doesn't convert the event_data back to a payload
there). So this event will be delivered with incorrect event_data if the
event is restored on another system after migration.
