^^^^^^^^^^

The failed vmentry is triggered by the following testcase when ept=Y:

#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <linux/kvm.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
long r[5];
int main()
{
r[2] = open("/dev/kvm", O_RDONLY);
r[3] = ioctl(r[2], KVM_CREATE_VM, 0);
r[4] = ioctl(r[3], KVM_CREATE_VCPU, 7);
struct kvm_regs regs = {
.rflags = 0,
};
ioctl(r[4], KVM_SET_REGS, &regs);
ioctl(r[4], KVM_RUN, 0);
}

X86 RFLAGS bit 1 is fixed set, userspace can simply clearing bit 1
of RFLAGS with KVM_SET_REGS ioctl which results in vmentry fails.
This patch fixes it by oring X86_EFLAGS_FIXED during ioctl.
