[patch 75/88] KVM: VMX: Flush volatile msrs before emulating rdmsr

[Greg KH]

2.6.28-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Avi Kivity <avi@xxxxxxxxxx>

(cherry picked from 516a1a7e9dc80358030fe01aabb3bedf882db9e2)

Some msrs (notable MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE) are held in the processor registers
and need to be flushed to the vcpu struture before they can be read.

This fixes cygwin longjmp() failure on Windows x64.
