To keep backward compatibility, we add new KVM capability
"KVM_CAP_FORWARD_HYPERCALL" to probe whether KVM supports forwarding
hypercall to userspace.
The capability should be enabled explicitly, for we don't want user
space application to deal with unexpected hypercall exits. We also use
an additional argument to pass exception bit mask, to request KVM to
forward all hypercalls except the classes specified in the bit mask.
Currently only PSCI can be set as exception, so that we can still keep
consistent with the original PSCI processing flow.
