    ms/KVM: x86: Introduce segmented_write_std
    
    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*!
    
    [anton.nefedov at virtuozzo.com]:
    there is no 283c95d0e389 (emulated fxrstor/fxsave) on the branch,
    so backported for sgdt/sidt only
