Subject: kvm: x86: don't kill guest on unknown exit reason

From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <[email protected]>

commit 2bc19dc3754fc066c43799659f0d848631c44cfe upstream.

KVM_EXIT_UNKNOWN is a kvm bug, we don't really know whether it was
triggered by a priveledged application.  Let's not kill the guest: WARN
and inject #UD instead.
