Subject: [PATCH v2 1/7] KVM:VMX: Define CET VMCS fields and bits

On processors that support CET, VMX saves/restores
the states of IA32_S_CET, SSP and IA32_INTERRUPT_SSP_TABLE_ADDR MSR
to the VMCS area for Guest/Host unconditionally.

If VM_EXIT_LOAD_HOST_CET_STATE = 1, the host CET MSRs are
restored from VMCS host-state area at VM exit as follows:

- HOST_IA32_S_CET: Host supervisor mode IA32_S_CET MSR is loaded
                   from this field.

- HOST_SSP : Host SSP is loaded from this field.

- HOST_INTR_SSP_TABLE_ADDR : Host IA32_INTERRUPT_SSP_TABLE_ADDR
                             MSR is loaded from this field.

If VM_ENTRY_LOAD_GUEST_CET_STATE = 1, the guest CET MSRs are loaded
from VMCS guest-state area at VM entry as follows:

- GUEST_IA32_S_CET : Guest supervisor mode IA32_S_CET MSR is loaded
                     from this field.

- GUEST_SSP : Guest SSP is loaded from this field.

- GUEST_INTR_SSP_TABL_ADDR : Guest IA32_INTERRUPT_SSP_TABLE_ADDR
                             MSR is loaded from this field.

Additionally, to context switch guest and host CET states, the VMM
uses xsaves/xrstors instructions to save/restore the guest CET states
at VM exit/entry. The CET xsave area is within thread_struct.fpu area.
If OS execution flow changes during task switch/interrupt/exception etc.,
the OS also relies on xsaves/xrstors to switch CET states accordingly.

Note: Although these VMCS fields are 64-bit, they don't have high fields.
