[PATCH 1/2] KVM: SVM: Fix NMI path when NMI happens in guest mode

[Joerg Roedel]

The vmexit path on SVM needs to restore the KERNEL_GS_BASE
MSR in order to savely execute the NMI handler. Otherwise a
pending NMI can occur after the STGI instruction and crash
the machine.
This makes it impossible to run perf and kvm in parallel on
an AMD machine in a stable way.
