[PATCH v4 04/16] KVM: selftests: Check for a potential unhandled exception iff KVM_RUN succeeded

Don't check for an unhandled exception if KVM_RUN failed, e.g. if it
returned errno=EFAULT, as reporting unhandled exceptions is done via a
ucall, i.e. requires KVM_RUN to exit cleanly.  Theoretically, checking
for a ucall on a failed KVM_RUN could get a false positive, e.g. if there
were stale data in vcpu->run from a previous exit.
