Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: revert the order of calls in kvm_fast_pio()

In commit 45def77ebf79, the order of function calls in kvm_fast_pio()
was changed. This causes that the vm(XP,and also XP's iso img) failed
to boot. This doesn't happen with win10 or ubuntu.

After revert the order, the vm(XP) succeedes to boot. In addition, the
change of calls's order of kvm_fast_pio() in commit 45def77ebf79 has no
obvious reason.

Fixes: 45def77ebf79 ("KVM: x86: update %rip after emulating IO")
