kvm: Handle inst events at the current instruction count
There are cases (particularly when attaching GDB) when instruction
events are scheduled at the current instruction tick. This used to
trigger an assertion error in kvm. This changeset adds a check for
this condition and forces KVM to do a quick entry that completes any
pending IO operations, but does not execute any new instructions,
before servicing the event. We could check if we need to enter KVM at
all, but forcing a quick entry is makes the code slightly cleaner and
does not hurt correctness (performance is hardly an issue in these
cases).
