KVM: SVM: Restore correct registers after sel_cr0 intercept emulation
This patch implements restoring of the correct rip, rsp, and
rax after the svm emulation in KVM injected a selective_cr0
write intercept into the guest hypervisor. The problem was
that the vmexit is emulated in the instruction emulation
which later commits the registers right after the write-cr0
instruction. So the l1 guest will continue to run with the
l2 rip, rsp and rax resulting in unpredictable behavior.
This patch is not the final word, it is just an easy patch
to fix the issue. The real fix will be done when the
instruction emulator is made aware of nested virtualization.
Until this is done this patch fixes the issue and provides
an easy way to fix this in -stable too.
This patch fixes 32 bit legacy paging with NPT enabled. The
mmu_check_root call on the top-level of the loop causes
root_gfn to take values (in the tdp_enabled path) which are
outside of guest memory. So the mmu_check_root call fails at
some point in the loop interation causing the guest to
tiple-fault.
This patch changes the mmu_check_root calls to the places
where they are really necessary. As a side-effect it
introduces a check for the root of a pae page table too.

This is not how real hardware works though. On real hardware, the interrupt
controller pulls the external interrupt line until it gets notified that the
interrupt was received.
So in reality we have two events: pulling and letting go of the interrupt line.
To maintain backwards compatibility, I added a new request for the pulling
part. The letting go part was implemented earlier already.
With this in place, we can now finally start guests that do not randomly stall
