vmx: fix handling of NMI VMEXIT.
Call do_nmi() directly and explicitly re-enable NMIs rather than raising an NMI through the APIC. Since NMIs are disabled after the VMEXIT, the raised NMI would be blocked until the next IRET instruction (i.e. the next real interrupt, or after scheduling a PV guest) and in the meantime the guest will spin taking NMI VMEXITS. Also, handle NMIs before re-enabling interrupts, since if we handle an interrupt (and therefore IRET) before calling do_nmi(), we may end up running the NMI handler with NMIs enabled.
