x86: Make the GDT remapping read-only on 64-bit
This patch makes the GDT remapped pages read-only, to prevent accidental (or intentional) corruption of this key data structure. This change is done only on 64-bit, because 32-bit needs it to be writable for TSS switches. The native_load_tr_desc function was adapted to correctly handle a read-only GDT. The LTR instruction always writes to the GDT TSS entry. This generates a page fault if the GDT is read-only. This change checks if the current GDT is a remap and swap GDTs as needed. This function was tested by booting multiple machines and checking hibernation works properly. KVM SVM and VMX were adapted to use the writeable GDT. On VMX, the per-cpu variable was removed for functions to fetch the original GDT. Instead of reloading the previous GDT, VMX will reload the fixmap GDT as expected. For testing, VMs were started and restored on multiple configurations.
