selftests: kvm: fix sync_regs_test with newer gccs
Commit 204c91ef ("KVM: selftests: do not blindly clobber registers in guest asm") was intended to make test more gcc-proof, however, the result is exactly the opposite: on newer gccs (e.g. 8.2.1) the test breaks with ==== Test Assertion Failure ==== x86_64/sync_regs_test.c:168: run->s.regs.regs.rbx == 0xBAD1DEA + 1 pid=14170 tid=14170 - Invalid argument 1 0x00000000004015b3: main at sync_regs_test.c:166 (discriminator 6) 2 0x00007f413fb66412: ?? ??:0 3 0x000000000040191d: _start at ??:? rbx sync regs value incorrect 0x1. Apparently, compile is still free to play games with registers even when they have variables attached. Re-write guest code with 'asm volatile' by embedding ucall there and making sure rbx is preserved.
