[PATCH 1/4] kvm, vmx: move CR2 context switch out of assembly path

The VM entry/exit path is a giant inline assembly statement. Simplify it by doing CR2 context switching in plain C. Move CR2 restore behind IBRS clearing, so we reduce the amount of code we execute with IBRS on. Signed-off-by: Julian Stecklina Reviewed-by: Jan H. Schönherr Reviewed-by: Konrad Ja
