KVM: selftests: Explicitly clobber the IDT in the "delete memslot" testcase
Explicitly clobber the guest IDT in the "delete memslot" test, which expects the deleted memslot to result in either a KVM emulation error, or a triple fault shutdown. A future change to the core selftests library will configuring the guest IDT and exception handlers by default, i.e. will install a guest #PF handler and put the guest into an infinite #NPF loop (the guest hits a !PRESENT SPTE when trying to vector a #PF, and KVM reinjects the #PF without fixing the #NPF, because there is no memslot). Note, it's not clear whether or not KVM's behavior is reasonable in this case, e.g. arguably KVM should try (and fail) to emulate in response to the #NPF. But barring a goofy/broken userspace, this scenario will likely never happen in practice. Punt the KVM investigation to the future.
