KVM: VMX: Fix host GDT.LIMIT corruption
vmx does not restore GDT.LIMIT to the host value, instead it sets it to 64KB. This means host userspace can learn a few bits of host memory. Fix by reloading GDTR when we load other host state. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
