[PATCH v3 0/6] KVM: SVM: Fix DEBUGCTL bugs

[Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>]

Fix a long-lurking bug in SVM where KVM runs the guest with the host's
DEBUGCTL if LBR virtualization is disabled.  AMD CPUs rather stupidly
context switch DEBUGCTL if and only if LBR virtualization is enabled (not
just supported, but fully enabled).

The bug has gone unnoticed because until recently, the only bits that
KVM would leave set were things like BTF, which are guest visible but
won't cause functional problems unless guest software is being especially
particular about #DBs.

The bug was exposed by the addition of BusLockTrap ("Detect" in the kernel),
as the resulting #DBs due to split-lock accesses in guest userspace (lol
Steam) get reflected into the guest by KVM.

Note, I don't love suppressing DEBUGCTL.BTF, but practically speaking that's
likely the behavior that SVM guests have gotten the vast, vast majority of
the time, and given that it's the behavior on Intel, it's (hopefully) a safe
option for a fix, e.g. versus trying to add proper BTF virtualization on the
fly.

v3:
 - Suppress BTF, as KVM doesn't actually support it. [Ravi]
 - Actually load the guest's DEBUGCTL (though amusingly, with BTF squashed,
   it's guaranteed to be '0' in this scenario). [Ravi]

v2:
 - Load the guest's DEBUGCTL instead of simply zeroing it on VMRUN.
 - Drop bits 5:3 from guest DEBUGCTL so that KVM doesn't let the guest
   unintentionally enable BusLockTrap (AMD repurposed bits). [Ravi]
 - Collect a review. [Xiaoyao]
 - Make bits 5:3 fully reserved, in a separate not-for-stable patch.
