KVM: x86: Extend KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS with selective updates
User space may not want to overwrite asynchronously changing VCPU event
states on write-back. So allow to skip nmi.pending and sipi_vector by
setting corresponding bits in the flags field of kvm_vcpu_events.
[avi: advertise the bits in KVM_GET_VCPU_EVENTS]
