Subject: [PATCH 1/3] KVM: X86: Introduce generic guest-mode representation

This patch introduces a generic representation of guest-mode
fpr a vcpu. This currently only exists in the SVM code.
Having this representation generic will help making the
non-svm code aware of nesting when this is necessary.
