Duplicated to exit_handler_fn, defined in handle_exit.c, need move the
definition to header file.

Unncessary blank line and the conditon isn't completely correct: kvm_handle_sys_reg()
should return 0 if the requested emulation fails, even it always returns 1 for now.

	ret = kvm_handle_sys_reg(vcpu);
	if (ret > 0 && !is_write)
		rec->run->enter.gprs[0] = vcpu_get_reg(vcpu, rt);
