This patch set aims to fix few flaws that were discovered
in KVM_{GET|SET}_SREGS on x86:

* There is no support for reading/writing PDPTRs although
  these are considered to be part of the guest state.

* There is useless interrupt bitmap which isn't needed

* No support for future extensions (via flags and such)

Final two patches in this patch series allow to
correctly migrate PDPTRs when new API is used.

This patch series was tested by doing nested migration test
of 32 bit PAE L1 + 32 bit PAE L2 on AMD and Intel and by
nested migration test of 64 bit L1 + 32 bit PAE L2 on AMD.
The later test currently fails on Intel (regardless of my patches).

Finally patch 2 in this patch series fixes a rare L0 kernel oops,
which I can trigger by migrating a hyper-v machine.

Best regards,
	Maxim Levitskky
