Use an enum for passing around the failure code for a failed VM-Enter
that results in VM-Exit to provide a level of indirection from the final
resting place of the failure code, vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION. The exit
qualification field is an unsigned long, e.g. passing around
'u32 exit_qual' throws up red flags as it suggests KVM may be dropping
bits when reporting errors to L1. This is a red herring because the
only defined failure codes are 0, 2, 3, and 4, i.e. don't come remotely
close to overflowing a u32.
Setting vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION on entry failure is further complicated
by the MSR load list, which returns the (1-based) entry that failed, and
the number of MSRs to load is a 32-bit VMCS field. At first blush, it
would appear that overflowing a u32 is possible, but the number of MSRs
that can be loaded is hardcapped at 4096 (limited by MSR_IA32_VMX_MISC).
In other words, there are two completely disparate types of data that
eventually get stuffed into vmcs.EXIT_QUALIFICATION, neither of which is
an 'unsigned long' in nature. This was presumably the reasoning for
switching to 'u32' when the related code was refactored in commit
