Subject: [PATCH kernel 4/9] KVM: SEV-ES: explicitly disable debug

SVM/SEV enable debug registers intercepts to skip swapping DRs
on entering/exiting the guest. When the guest is in control of
debug registers (vcpu->guest_debug == 0), there is an optimisation to
reduce the number of context switches: intercepts are cleared and
the KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT flag is set to tell KVM to do swapping
on guest enter/exit.

The same code also executes for SEV-ES, however it has no effect as
- it always takes (vcpu->guest_debug == 0) branch;
- KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT is set but DR7 intercept is not cleared;
- vcpu_enter_guest() writes DRs but VMRUN for SEV-ES swaps them
with the values from _encrypted_ VMSA.

Be explicit about SEV-ES not supporting debug:
- return right away from dr_interception() and skip unnecessary processing;
- return an error right away from the KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_UPDATE_VMSA handler
if debugging was already enabled.
KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG are failing already after KVM_SEV_LAUNCH_UPDATE_VMSA
is finished due to vcpu->arch.guest_state_protected set to true.

Add WARN_ON to kvm_x86::sync_dirty_debug_regs() (saves guest DRs on
guest exit) to signify that SEV-ES won't hit that path.

Changes:
v6:
* fail in LAUNCH_UPDATE_VMSA instead of clearing the flag
* pr_warn_ratelimited -> pr_warn_once
* due to the rework, removed Tom's "rb"

v5:
* new in the series
