KVM: VMX: Re-enter guest in fastpath for "spurious" preemption timer exits
Re-enter the guest in the fast path if VMX preeemption timer VM-Exit was "spurious", i.e. if KVM "soft disabled" the timer by writing -1u and by some miracle the timer expired before any other VM-Exit occurred. This is just an intermediate step to cleaning up the preemption timer handling, optimizing these types of spurious VM-Exits is not interesting as they are extremely rare/infrequent.
