Load RDX with the VMCS.HOST_RSP field encoding on-demand instead of delegating to the compiler via an input constraint. In addition to saving one whole MOV instruction, this allows RDX to be properly clobbered (in a future patch) instead of being saved/loaded to/from the stack. Despite nested_vmx_check_vmentry_hw() having similar code, leave it alone, for now. In that case, RDX is unconditionally used and isn't clobbered, i.e. sending in HOST_RSP as an input is simpler. Note that because HOST_RSP is an enum and not a define, it must be redefined as an immediate instead of using __stringify(HOST_RSP). The naming "conflict" between host_rsp and HOST_RSP is slightly confusing, but the former will be removed in a future patch, at which point HOST_RSP is absolutely what is desired.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
