Subject: [PATCH 0/8] KVM: SVM: Clean up VMRUN=>#VMEXIT assembly

Clean up SVM's enter/exit assembly code so that it can be compiled
without OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD.  The "standard" __svm_vcpu_run() can't
be made 100% bulletproof, as RBP isn't restored on #VMEXIT, but that's
also the case for __vmx_vcpu_run(), and getting "close enough" is better
than not even trying.

As for SEV-ES, after yet another refresher on swap types, I realized KVM
can simply let the hardware restore registers after #VMEXIT, all that's
missing is storing the current values to the host save area (I learned the
hard way that they are swap Type B, *sigh*).  Unless I'm missing something,
this provides 100% accuracy when using stack frames for unwinding, and
requires less assembly (though probably not fewer code bytes; I didn't check).

In between, build the SEV-ES code iff CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV=y, and yank out
"support" for 32-bit kernels, which was unncessarily polluting the code.

I'm pretty sure I actually managed to test all of this, thanks to the SEV-ES
smoke selftests, and a bit of hacking to disable V_SPEC_CTRL, passthrough
SPEC_CTRL unconditionally, and have the selftests W/R SPEC_CTRL from its
guest.

Sean Christopherson (8):
  KVM: SVM: Create a stack frame in __svm_vcpu_run() for unwinding
  KVM: SVM: Wrap __svm_sev_es_vcpu_run() with #ifdef CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV
  KVM: SVM: Drop 32-bit "support" from __svm_sev_es_vcpu_run()
  KVM: SVM: Clobber RAX instead of RBX when discarding
    spec_ctrl_intercepted
  KVM: SVM: Save/restore non-volatile GPRs in SEV-ES VMRUN via host save
    area
  KVM: SVM: Save/restore args across SEV-ES VMRUN via host save area
  KVM: SVM: Create a stack frame in __svm_sev_es_vcpu_run()
  KVM: x86: Stop compiling vmenter.S with OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD
