There's a minor issue in previous version. Sorry for that and please
ignore that version. Resend the patch set.

---

Notify VM exit is introduced to mitigate the potential DOS attach from
malicious VM. This series is the userspace part to enable this feature
through a new KVM capability KVM_CAP_X86_NOTIFY_VMEXIT. The detailed
info can be seen in Patch 4.

The corresponding KVM support can be found in linux 6.0-rc:
(2f4073e08f4c KVM: VMX: Enable Notify VM exit)
