[PATCH v1 3/3] x86: Make the GDT remapping read-only on 64 bit

[Thomas Garnier]

This patch makes the GDT remapped pages read-only to prevent corruption.
This change is done only on 64 bit.

The native_load_tr_desc function was adapted to correctly handle a
read-only GDT. The LTR instruction always writes to the GDT TSS entry.
This generates a page fault if the GDT is read-only. This change checks
if the current GDT is a remap and swap GDTs as needed. This function was
tested by booting multiple machines and checking hibernation works
properly.

KVM SVM and VMX were adapted to use the writeable GDT. On VMX, the GDT
description and writeble address were put in two per-cpu variables for
convenience. For testing, VMs were started and restored on multiple
configurations.
