KVM: nSVM: Always intercept VMMCALL when L2 is active

Always intercept VMMCALL now that KVM properly synthesizes a #UD as
appropriate, i.e. when L1 doesn't want to intercept VMMCALL, to avoid
putting L2 into an infinite #UD loop if KVM_X86_QUIRK_FIX_HYPERCALL_INSN
is enabled.

By letting L2 execute VMMCALL natively and thus #UD, for all intents and
purposes KVM morphs the VMMCALL intercept into a #UD intercept (KVM always
intercepts #UD).  When the hypercall quirk is enabled, KVM "emulates"
VMMCALL in response to the #UD by trying to fixup the opcode to the "right"
vendor, then restarts the guest, without skipping the VMMCALL.  As a
result, the guest sees an endless stream of #UDs since it's already
executing the correct vendor hypercall instruction, i.e. the emulator
doesn't anticipate that the #UD could be due to lack of interception, as
opposed to a truly undefined opcode.
