Paolo Bonzini 81908bf443 KVM: vmx: Allow the guest to run with dirty debug registers
When not running in guest-debug mode (i.e. the guest controls the debug
registers, having to take an exit for each DR access is a waste of time.
If the guest gets into a state where each context switch causes DR to be
saved and restored, this can take away as much as 40% of the execution
time from the guest.

If the guest is running with vcpu->arch.db == vcpu->arch.eff_db, we
can let it write freely to the debug registers and reload them on the
next exit.  We still need to exit on the first access, so that the
KVM_DEBUGREG_WONT_EXIT flag is set in switch_db_regs; after that, further
accesses to the debug registers will not cause a vmexit.
