Since commit 8b24e69fc47e ("KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Close race with testing
for signals on guest entry"), if CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_GEN is set, the
guest time is not accounted to guest time and user time, but instead to
system time.

This is because guest_enter()/guest_exit() are called while interrupts
are disabled and the tick counter cannot be updated between them.

To fix that, move guest_exit() after local_irq_enable(), and as
guest_enter() is called with IRQ disabled, calls guest_enter_irqoff()
instead.
