KVM: nVMX: Properly handle userspace interrupt window request
Return true for vmx_interrupt_allowed() if the vCPU is in L2 and L1 has external interrupt exiting enabled. IRQs are never blocked in hardware if the CPU is in the guest (L2 from L1's perspective) when IRQs trigger VM-Exit. The new check percolates up to kvm_vcpu_ready_for_interrupt_injection() and thus vcpu_run(), and so KVM will exit to userspace if userspace has requested an interrupt window (to inject an IRQ into L1). Remove the @external_intr param from vmx_check_nested_events(), which is actually an indicator that userspace wants an interrupt window, e.g. it's named @req_int_win further up the stack. Injecting a VM-Exit into L1 to try and bounce out to L0 userspace is all kinds of broken and is no longer necessary. Remove the hack in nested_vmx_vmexit() that attempted to workaround the breakage in vmx_check_nested_events() by only filling interrupt info if there's an actual interrupt pending. The hack actually made things worse because it caused KVM to _never_ fill interrupt info when the LAPIC resides in userspace (kvm_cpu_has_interrupt() queries interrupt.injected, which is always cleared by prepare_vmcs12() before reaching the hack in nested_vmx_vmexit()).
