Paolo Bonzini e61ab42de8 KVM: SVM: move guest vmsave/vmload back to assembly
It is error-prone that code after vmexit cannot access percpu data
because GSBASE has not been restored yet.  It forces MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL
save/restore to happen very late, after the predictor untraining
sequence, and it gets in the way of return stack depth tracking
(a retbleed mitigation that is in linux-next as of 2022-11-09).

As a first step towards fixing that, move the VMCB VMSAVE/VMLOAD to
assembly, essentially undoing commit fb0c4a4fee5a ("KVM: SVM: move
VMLOAD/VMSAVE to C code", 2021-03-15).  The reason for that commit was
that it made it simpler to use a different VMCB for VMLOAD/VMSAVE versus
VMRUN; but that is not a big hassle anymore thanks to the kvm-asm-offsets
machinery and other related cleanups.

The idea on how to number the exception tables is stolen from
a prototype patch by Peter Zijlstra.
