Enum values have to be exported to userspace since the formatting is not
done in the kernel. Without doing this perf maps RET_PF_FIXED and
RET_PF_SPURIOUS to 0, which results in incorrect output:
$ perf record -a -e kvmmmu:fast_page_fault --filter "ret==3" -- ./access_tracking_perf_test
$ perf script | head -1
[...] new 610006048d25877 spurious 0 fixed 0 <------ should be 1
Fix this by exporting the enum values to userspace with TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM.
Fixes: c4371c2a68 ("KVM: x86/mmu: Return unique RET_PF_* values if the fault was fixed")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
