This patch introduces a generic representation of guest-mode
fpr a vcpu. This currently only exists in the SVM code.
Having this representation generic will help making the
non-svm code aware of nesting when this is necessary.

This function is implemented to load the pdptr pointers of
the currently running guest (l1 or l2 guest). Therefore it
takes care about the current paging mode and can read pdptrs
out of l2 guest physical memory.

This function need to be able to load the pdptrs from any
mmu context currently in use. So change this function to
take an kvm_mmu parameter to fit these needs.
As a side effect this patch also moves the cached pdptrs
from vcpu_arch into the kvm_mmu struct.

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.

'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.

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.

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.

Instead of reloading the pdptrs on every entry and exit (vmcs writes on vmx,
guest memory access on svm) extract them on demand.

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.
