[patch v6 08/10] KVM: x86: process isolation work from VM-entry code path

[Marcelo Tosatti]

The logic to disable vmstat worker thread, when entering
nohz full, does not cover all scenarios. For example, it is possible
for the following to happen:

VM-entry code path is an entry point similar to userspace return
when task isolation is concerned.

Call isolation_exit_to_user_mode before VM-enter.
