        src/sys/dev/nvmm/x86: nvmm_x86_vmx.c

Log Message:
nvmm_x86_vmx.c: fixes tprof stalls

the current implementation of nvmm nmi handling is
simple; just drops them. it interferes other nmi-using
components in the system, including tprof.

this commit makes nvmm try to dispatch nmis by itself.
while this is imperfect, it's good enough to give
tprof a chance to unmask LAPIC_LVT_PCINT.

i guess svm VMCB_EXITCODE_NMI needs something similar.
but i have no hardware. if someone wants to test a patch,
please let me know.

reproduce recipe:
1. run "tprof top" in a terminal. leave it running.
2. run an nvmm-based vm in another terminal.
3. observe some cpus in the "tprof top" stopped counting.
