KVM: VMX: Handle NMIs, #MCs and async #PFs in common irqs-disabled fn



Per commit 1b6269db ("KVM: VMX: Handle NMIs before enabling
interrupts and preemption"), NMIs are handled directly in vmx_vcpu_run()
to "make sure we handle NMI on the current cpu, and that we don't
service maskable interrupts before non-maskable ones".  The other
exceptions handled by complete_atomic_exit(), e.g. async #PF and #MC,
have similar requirements, and are located there to avoid extra VMREADs
since VMX bins hardware exceptions and NMIs into a single exit reason.

Clean up the code and eliminate the vaguely named complete_atomic_exit()
by moving the interrupts-disabled exception and NMI handling into the
existing handle_external_intrs() callback, and rename the callback to
a more appropriate name.  Rename VMexit handlers throughout so that the
atomic and non-atomic counterparts have similar names.

In addition to improving code readability, this also ensures the NMI
handler is run with the host's debug registers loaded in the unlikely
event that the user is debugging NMIs.  Accuracy of the last_guest_tsc
field is also improved when handling NMIs (and #MCs) as the handler
will run after updating said field.
