x86/kvm/vmx: avoid expensive rdmsr for MSR_GS_BASE
vmx_save_host_state() is only called from kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run() so the context is pretty well defined and as we're past 'swapgs' MSR_GS_BASE should contain kernel's GS base which we point to irq_stack_union. Add new kernelmode_gs_base() API, irq_stack_union needs to be exported as KVM can be build as module. Acked-by: Andy Lutomirski <luto@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
