KVM: PPC: Allow kvmppc_get_last_inst() to fail

Browse Source 
On book3e, guest last instruction is read on the exit path using load
external pid (lwepx) dedicated instruction. This load operation may fail
due to TLB eviction and execute-but-not-read entries.

This patch lay down the path for an alternative solution to read the guest
last instruction, by allowing kvmppc_get_lat_inst() function to fail.
Architecture specific implmentations of kvmppc_load_last_inst() may read
last guest instruction and instruct the emulation layer to re-execute the
guest in case of failure.

Make kvmppc_get_last_inst() definition common between architectures.
