Sean Christopherson 7b3d1bbf8d KVM: VMX: Handle KVM-induced preemption timer exits in fastpath for L2
Eat VMX treemption timer exits in the fastpath regardless of whether L1 or
L2 is active.  The VM-Exit is 100% KVM-induced, i.e. there is nothing
directly related to the exit that KVM needs to do on behalf of the guest,
thus there is no reason to wait until the slow path to do nothing.

Opportunistically add comments explaining why preemption timer exits for
emulating the guest's APIC timer need to go down the slow path.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
