KVM: x86: Introduce segmented_write_std
commit 129a72a0d3c8e139a04512325384fe5ac119e74d upstream. Introduces segemented_write_std. Switches from emulated reads/writes to standard read/writes in fxsave, fxrstor, sgdt, and sidt. This fixes CVE-2017-2584, a longstanding kernel memory leak. Since commit 283c95d0e389 ("KVM: x86: emulate FXSAVE and FXRSTOR", 2016-11-09), which is luckily not yet in any final release, this would also be an exploitable kernel memory *write*!
