Notify VM exit is introduced to mitigate the potential DOS attach from
malicious VM. This series is the userspace part to enable this feature
through a new KVM capability KVM_CAP_X86_NOTIFY_VMEXIT. The detailed
info can be seen in Patch 4.

The corresponding KVM support can be found in linux 6.0-rc:
(2f4073e08f4c KVM: VMX: Enable Notify VM exit)

---
Change logs:
v7 -> v8
- Add triple_fault_pending field transmission on migration (Paolo)
- Change the notify-vmexit and notify-window to the accelerator property. Add it as
  a x86-specific property. (Paolo)
- Add a preparation patch to expose struct KVMState in order to add target-specific property.
- Define three option for notify-vmexit. Make it on by default. (Paolo)
- Raise a KVM internal error instead of triple fault if invalid context of guest VMCS detected.
- v7: https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20220923073333.23381-1-chenyi.qiang@intel.com/

v6 -> v7
- Add a warning message when exiting to userspace (Peter Xu)
- v6: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220915092839.5518-1-chenyi.qiang@intel.com/

v5 -> v6
- Add some info related to the valid range of notify_window in patch 2. (Peter Xu)
- Add the doc in qemu-options.hx. (Peter Xu)
- v5: https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20220817020845.21855-1-chenyi.qiang@intel.com/

Thanks, I will queue this in my next pull request.

Thanks Paolo!

Please take the resend version at 
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20220929072014.20705-1-chenyi.qiang@intel.com/

There's a minor compile issue in this one.
