Argh, I forgot that this one of the like five places KVM actually respects the
long mode flag. Even worse, I fixed basically the same thing a while back,
commit b68f3cc7d978 ("KVM: x86: Always use 32-bit SMRAM save state for 32-bit kernels").

We should really harden put_smstate() and GET_SMSTATE()...
