Add a hand coded assembly trampoline to preserve volatile registers
across vmread_error(), and to handle the calling convention differences
between 64-bit and 32-bit due to asmlinkage on vmread_error(). Pass
@field and @fault on the stack when invoking the trampoline to avoid
clobbering volatile registers in the context of the inline assembly.
Calling vmread_error() directly from inline assembly is partially broken
on 64-bit, and completely broken on 32-bit. On 64-bit, it will clobber
%rdi and %rsi (used to pass @field and @fault) and any volatile regs
written by vmread_error(). On 32-bit, asmlinkage means vmread_error()
expects the parameters to be passed on the stack, not via regs.
Opportunistically zero out the result in the trampoline to save a few
bytes of code for every VMREAD. A happy side effect of the trampoline
is that the inline code footprint is reduced by three bytes on 64-bit
due to PUSH/POP being more efficent (in terms of opcode bytes) than MOV.
