Dexuan Cui 2acf923e38 KVM: VMX: Enable XSAVE/XRSTOR for guest
This patch enable guest to use XSAVE/XRSTOR instructions.

We assume that host_xcr0 would use all possible bits that OS supported.

And we loaded xcr0 in the same way we handled fpu - do it as late as we can.

Avi Kivity 8ae0991276 KVM: Optimize kvm_read_cr[04]_bits()
'mask' is always a constant, so we can check whether it includes a bit that
might be owned by the guest very cheaply, and avoid the decache call.  Saves
a few hundred bytes of module text.

We will use this later to give the guest ownership of cr0.ts.

Avi Kivity 4d4ec08745 KVM: Replace read accesses of vcpu->arch.cr0 by an accessor
Since we'd like to allow the guest to own a few bits of cr0 at times, we need
to know when we access those bits.

Avi Kivity fc78f51938 KVM: Add accessor for reading cr4 (or some bits of cr4)
Some bits of cr4 can be owned by the guest on vmx, so when we read them,
we copy them to the vcpu structure.  In preparation for making the set of
guest-owned bits dynamic, use helpers to access these bits so we don't need
to know where the bit resides.

No changes to svm since all bits are host-owned there.

Avi Kivity 6de4f3ada4 KVM: Cache pdptrs
Instead of reloading the pdptrs on every entry and exit (vmcs writes on vmx,
guest memory access on svm) extract them on demand.

Marcelo Tosatti 5fdbf9765b KVM: x86: accessors for guest registers
As suggested by Avi, introduce accessors to read/write guest registers.
This simplifies the ->cache_regs/->decache_regs interface, and improves
register caching which is important for VMX, where the cost of
vmcs_read/vmcs_write is significant.
