Again, this seems to override the return value of exit_handler, which
may be something negative.

Just so I'm clear: There's no intended functionality change of this
particular hunk, it's just to share the logic in
kvm_arm_maybe_return_debug, right?

Will this ever be about other types of debugging (watchpoint on a MMIO
access?) or should we limit the text and description to single-stepping?
