Allow instrumentation in the VM-Fail path of __vmcs_readl() so that the
helper can be used in noinstr functions, e.g. to get the exit reason in
vmx_vcpu_enter_exit() in order to handle NMI VM-Exits in the noinstr
section.  While allowing instrumentation isn't technically safe, KVM has
much bigger problems if VMREAD fails in a noinstr section.

Note, all other VMX instructions also allow instrumentation in their
VM-Fail paths for similar reasons, VMREAD was simply omitted by commit
3ebccdf373c2 ("x86/kvm/vmx: Move guest enter/exit into .noinstr.text")
because VMREAD wasn't used in a noinstr section at the time.
