This means that if we do happen to get a trap that we don't know
about, we abort the guest rather than crashing the host kernel.

This should probably tell user space what's going on. The way x86 handles this is through the kvm_run structure and I think we should try to stay as compatible as possible here:

arch/x86/kvm/svm.c:3489
arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c:6800
