if the error is SEA and we want to inject the sea to guest OK, after
finish the handle, whether we need to directly return? instead of
continuation? as shown below:

       if (fault_status == FSC_EXTABT) {
               if(handle_guest_sea((unsigned long)fault_ipa,
                                   kvm_vcpu_get_hsr(vcpu))) {
                       kvm_err("Failed to handle guest SEA, FSC:
EC=%#x xFSC=%#lx ESR_EL2=%#lx\n",
                               kvm_vcpu_trap_get_class(vcpu),
                               (unsigned long)kvm_vcpu_trap_get_fault(vcpu),
                               (unsigned long)kvm_vcpu_get_hsr(vcpu));
                       return -EFAULT;
          } else
                       return 1;
