KVM: x86: Fix the intel_pt PMI handling wrongly considered from guest
When kernel handles the vm-exit caused by external interrupts and NMI,
it always sets kvm_intr_type to tell if it's dealing an IRQ or NMI. For
the PMI scenario, it could be IRQ or NMI.
However, intel_pt PMIs are only generated for HARDWARE perf events, and
HARDWARE events are always configured to generate NMIs. Use
kvm_handling_nmi_from_guest() to precisely identify if the intel_pt PMI
came from the guest; this avoids false positives if an intel_pt PMI/NMI
arrives while the host is handling an unrelated IRQ VM-Exit.
Fixes: db215756ae59 ("KVM: x86: More precisely identify NMI from guest when handling PMI")
