Reported by syzkaller:

   WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 12927 at arch/x86/kernel/traps.c:780 do_debug+0x222/0x250
   CPU: 0 PID: 12927 Comm: syz-executor Tainted: G           OE    4.15.0-rc2+ #16
   RIP: 0010:do_debug+0x222/0x250

    SyS_timer_create+0x33/0x80
    entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath+0x23/0x9a

The syzkaller will mmap a buffer which is also the struct sigevent parameter of
timer_create(), it will also call perf_event_open() to set a BP for the buffer,
so when the implementation of timer_create() in kernel tries to get the struct
sigevent parameter by copy_from_user(), rep movsb triggers the BP. The syzkaller
testcase also sets the debug registers for the guest, however, the kvm just
restores host debug registers when we have active breakpoints. I can observe
the dr6 single step bit is set and !hw_breakpoint_active() sporadically by print
when running the testcase heavy multithreading. The do_debug() which is triggered
by rep movsb will splash when (dr6 & DR_STEP && !user_mode(regs)).

This patch fixes it by restoring host dr6 in sched_out if no breakpoint is active.
