Subject: [PATCH 4/5] selftests/kvm/x86_64: set rax before vmcall

kvm_hypercall has to place the hypercall number in rax.

Trace events show that kvm_pv_test doesn't work properly:
     kvm_pv_test-53132: kvm_hypercall: nr 0x0 a0 0x0 a1 0x0 a2 0x0 a3 0x0
     kvm_pv_test-53132: kvm_hypercall: nr 0x0 a0 0x0 a1 0x0 a2 0x0 a3 0x0
     kvm_pv_test-53132: kvm_hypercall: nr 0x0 a0 0x0 a1 0x0 a2 0x0 a3 0x0

With this change, it starts working as expected:
     kvm_pv_test-54285: kvm_hypercall: nr 0x5 a0 0x0 a1 0x0 a2 0x0 a3 0x0
     kvm_pv_test-54285: kvm_hypercall: nr 0xa a0 0x0 a1 0x0 a2 0x0 a3 0x0
     kvm_pv_test-54285: kvm_hypercall: nr 0xb a0 0x0 a1 0x0 a2 0x0 a3 0x0
