[PATCH 1/3] KVM: VMX: Preserve negative return value in vmx_handle_exit() with bus lock detected

[Xiaoyao Li <xiaoyao.li@intel.com>]

Preserve the negative return value from __vmx_handle_exit() when a bus
lock is detected, instead of always overwriting it with 0.

The purpose of bus_lock_detected handling is to force a userspace exit to
inform userspace that a bus lock happened. The negative return value can
achieve this purpose, and changing the negative value to 0 fails to return
an error to userspace. So, preserve the negative return value.

I'm not sure on the Closes: link, since Sashiko didn't find the VMX
issue directly.
