[PATCH 04/60] KVM: SVM: Inject NMIs when Restricted Injection is active

Jörg Rödel joro at 8bytes.org

From: Melody Wang <huibo.wang at amd.com>

When Restricted Injection is active, only #HV exceptions can be injected
into the SEV-SNP guest.

Detect that, and then follow the #HV doorbell communication from the GHCB
specification to inject NMIs.
