Subject: [PATCH 3.2 080/164] kvm: x86: don't kill guest on unknown exit reason

3.2.65-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@...hat.com>

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.
