KVM: x86: fix maintenance of guest/host xcr0 state
Emulation of xcr0 writes zero guest_xcr0_loaded variable so that
subsequent VM-entry reloads CPU's xcr0 with guests xcr0 value.
However, this is incorrect because guest_xcr0_loaded variable is
read to decide whether to reload hosts xcr0.
In case the vcpu thread is scheduled out after the guest_xcr0_loaded = 0
assignment, and scheduler decides to preload FPU:
switch_to
{
__switch_to
__math_state_restore
restore_fpu_checking
fpu_restore_checking
if (use_xsave())
fpu_xrstor_checking
xrstor64 with CPU's xcr0 == guests xcr0
Fix by properly restoring hosts xcr0 during emulation of xcr0 writes.
