Subject[PATCH 3.16 032/131] KVM: SVM: Move spec control call after restore of GS
3.16.59-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

commit 15e6c22fd8e5a42c5ed6d487b7c9fe44c2517765 upstream.

svm_vcpu_run() invokes x86_spec_ctrl_restore_host() after VMEXIT, but
before the host GS is restored. x86_spec_ctrl_restore_host() uses 'current'
to determine the host SSBD state of the thread. 'current' is GS based, but
host GS is not yet restored and the access causes a triple fault.

Move the call after the host GS restore.

Fixes: 885f82bfbc6f x86/process: Allow runtime control of Speculative Store Bypass
