Sean Christopherson 019f3f84a4 KVM: x86: Get RIP from vCPU state when storing it to last_retry_eip
Read RIP from vCPU state instead of pulling it from the emulation context
when filling last_retry_eip, which is part of the anti-infinite-loop
protection used when unprotecting and retrying instructions that hit a
write-protected gfn.

This will allow reusing the anti-infinite-loop protection in flows that
never make it into the emulator.

No functional change intended, as ctxt->eip is set to kvm_rip_read() in
init_emulate_ctxt(), and EMULTYPE_PF emulation is mutually exclusive with
EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE and EMULTYPE_SKIP, i.e. always goes through
x86_decode_emulated_instruction() and hasn't advanced ctxt->eip (yet).

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 reStructuredText 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.
