mainlining shenanigans

Reset the per-vCPU available and dirty register masks when switching between vmcs01 and vmcs02, as the masks track state relative to the current VMCS. The stale masks don't cause problems in the current code base because the registers are either unconditionally written on nested transitions or, in the case of segment registers, have an additional tracker that is manually reset. Note, by dropping (previously implicitly, now explicitly) the dirty mask when switching the active VMCS, KVM is technically losing writes to the associated fields. But, the only regs that can be dirtied (RIP, RSP and PDPTRs) are unconditionally written on nested transitions, e.g. explicit writeback is a waste of cycles, and a WARN_ON would be rather pointless.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
