    x86/vmx: Don't spuriously crash the domain when INIT is received
    
    In VMX operation, the handling of INIT IPIs is changed.  Instead of the CPU
    resetting, the next VMEntry fails with EXIT_REASON_INIT.  From the TXT spec,
    the intent of this behaviour is so that an entity which cares can scrub
    secrets from RAM before participating in an orderly shutdown.
    
    Right now, Xen's behaviour is that when an INIT arrives, the HVM VM which
    schedules next is killed (citing an unknown VMExit), *and* we ignore the 
INIT
    and continue blindly onwards anyway.
    
    This patch addresses only the first of these two problems by ignoring the 
INIT
    and continuing without crashing the VM in question.
    
    The second wants addressing too, just as soon as we've figured out something
    better to do...
    
    Discovered as collateral damage from when an AP triple faults on S3 resume 
on
    Intel TigerLake platforms.
