Subject: [PATCH 5.14 03/15] KVM: Fix steal time asm constraints

From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@...zon.co.uk>

commit 964b7aa0b040bdc6ec1c543ee620cda3f8b4c68a upstream.

In 64-bit mode, x86 instruction encoding allows us to use the low 8 bits
of any GPR as an 8-bit operand. In 32-bit mode, however, we can only use
the [abcd] registers. For which, GCC has the "q" constraint instead of
the less restrictive "r".

Also fix st->preempted, which is an input/output operand rather than an
input.

Fixes: 7e2175ebd695 ("KVM: x86: Fix recording of guest steal time / preempted status")
