Subject: KVM: x86: fix em_fxstor() sleeping while in atomic

From: David Hildenbrand <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 4d772cb85f64c16eca00177089ecb3cd5d292120 ]

Commit 9d643f63128b ("KVM: x86: avoid large stack allocations in em_fxrstor") optimize the stack size, but introduced a guest memory access which might sleep while in atomic.

Fix it by introducing, again, a second fxregs_state. Try to avoid large stacks by using noinline. Add some helpful comments.
