KVM: x86: Refactor prefix decoding to prevent Spectre-v1/L1TF attacks
commit 125ffc5e0a56a3eded608dc51e09d5ebf72cf652 upstream.
This fixes Spectre-v1/L1TF vulnerabilities in
vmx_read_guest_seg_selector(), vmx_read_guest_seg_base(),
vmx_read_guest_seg_limit() and vmx_read_guest_seg_ar(). When
invoked from emulation, these functions contain index computations
based on the (attacker-influenced) segment value. Using constants
prevents the attack.
