[patch V2 16/17] kvm/workpending: Provide infrastructure for work before entering a guest

Entering a guest is similar to exiting to user space. Pending work like
handling signals, rescheduling, task work etc. needs to be handled before
that.

Provide generic infrastructure to avoid duplication of the same handling code
all over the place.

The kvm_exit code is split up into a KVM specific part and a generic
builtin core part to avoid multiple exports for the actual work
functions. The exit to guest mode handling is slightly different from the
exit to usermode handling, e.g. vs. rseq, so a separate function is used.
