Andrea Arcangeli 3dcb2a3fa5 KVM: retpolines: x86: eliminate retpoline from svm.c exit handlers
It's enough to check the exit value and issue a direct call to avoid
the retpoline for all the common vmexit reasons.

After this commit is applied, here the most common retpolines executed
under a high resolution timer workload in the guest on a SVM host:

SVM has no TSC based programmable preemption timer so it is invoking
ktime_get() frequently.
