For the direct triple faults, i.e. hardware detected and KVM morphed

by KVM, e.g. the RSM path, if KVM exits to userspace before the request
is serviced, userspace could migrate the VM and lose the triple fault.

A new flag KVM_VCPUEVENT_VALID_TRIPLE_FAULT is defined to signal that
the event.triple_fault_pending field contains a valid state if the
KVM_CAP_X86_TRIPLE_FAULT_EVENT capability is enabled.

Note that you are not transmitting the field on migration.  You need
this on top:

Thanks Paolo for your review!

I'll add this in next version.
