KVM: SEV: snapshot the GHCB before accessing it
Validation of the GHCB is susceptible to time-of-check/time-of-use vulnerabilities. To avoid them, we would like to always snapshot the fields that are read in sev_es_validate_vmgexit(), and not use the GHCB anymore after it returns. This means: - invoking sev_es_sync_from_ghcb() before any GHCB access, including before sev_es_validate_vmgexit() - snapshotting all fields including the valid bitmap and the sw_scratch field, which are currently not caching anywhere. The valid bitmap is the first thing to be copied out of the GHCB; then, further accesses will use the copy in svm->sev_es.
