Subject: [PATCH v2 13/49] KVM: selftests: Fix a bad TEST_REQUIRE() in x86's
 KVM PV test

Actually check for KVM support for disabling HLT-exiting instead of
effectively checking that KVM_CAP_X86_DISABLE_EXITS is #defined to a
non-zero value, and convert the TEST_REQUIRE() to a simple return so
that only the sub-test is skipped if HLT-exiting is mandatory.

The goof has likely gone unnoticed because all x86 CPUs support disabling
HLT-exiting, only systems with the opt-in mitigate_smt_rsb KVM module
param disallow HLT-exiting.
