When a KVM internal error occurs QEMU dumps the CPU state, however it
doesn't synchronise the state from KVM first so the dumped state is out
of date. Add the synchronisation calls before the dump in both locations
(which is used depends on whether the arch says to stop or not).

Note that x86 does a sync in its kvm_arch_stop_on_emulation_error()
function so at least for emulation errors is unaffected.
