No, that will not work. The problem is in vmx.o where I just sent another patch
for it.

I can see there are five options to solve it.

1) always inline vmx_vcpu_run()
2) always noinline vmx_vcpu_run()
3) add -fdiable-ipa-fnsplit option to Makefile for vmx.o
4) let STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD support part.* syntax.
5) trim-down vmx_vcpu_run() even more to not causing splitting by GCC.

Option 1) and 2) seems give away the decision for user with
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_(PERFORMANCE/SIZE).

Option 3) prevents other functions there for splitting for optimization.

Option 4) and 5) seems tricky to implement.

I am not more leaning to 3) as only other fuction will miss splitting is
vmx_segment_access_rights().
