Various improvements and fixes for the kvm_entry, kvm_exit and
kvm_nested_vmexit tracepoints.

  1. Capture the guest's RIP during kvm_entry for obvious reasons.

  2. Extend kvm_exit to report the same info as kvm_nested_vmexit, and
     macrofy its definition to reuse it verbatim for nested exits.

  3. Stop passing in params to kvm_nested_vmexit, and instead use the
     same approach (and now code) as kvm_exit where the tracepoint uses a
     dedicated kvm_x86_ops hook to retrieve the info.

  4. Stop reading GUEST_RIP, EXIT_QUAL, INTR_INFO, and ERROR_CODE on
     every VM-Exit from L2 (some of this comes in #3).  This saves ~100
     cycles (150+ with retpolines) on VM-Exits from L2 that are handled
     by L0, e.g. hardware interrupts.

Sean Christopherson (7):
  KVM: x86: Add RIP to the kvm_entry, i.e. VM-Enter, tracepoint
  KVM: x86: Read guest RIP from within the kvm_nested_vmexit tracepoint
  KVM: VMX: Add a helper to test for a valid error code given an intr
    info
  KVM: x86: Add intr/vectoring info and error code to kvm_exit
    tracepoint
  KVM: x86: Add macro wrapper for defining kvm_exit tracepoint
  KVM: x86: Use common definition for kvm_nested_vmexit tracepoint
  KVM: nVMX: Read EXIT_QUAL and INTR_INFO only when needed for nested
    exit
