Subject: [PATCH 0/2] KVM: x86: Fastpath accounting fixes

Fix two bugs where KVM fails to account/trace exits that are handled
in the super fast fastpath.  SVM doesn't actually utilize the super fast
fastpath, i.e. patch 1 only affects VMX and the bug fixed by patch 2 is
benign in the current code base.

Found by inspection, confirmed by hacking together a small selftest and
manually verifying the stats via sysfs.

  KVM: SVM: Invoke trace_kvm_exit() for fastpath VM-Exits
