KVM: SVM: install RSM intercept
RSM instruction is used by the SMM handler to return from SMM mode. Currently, rsm causes a #UD - which results in instruction fetch, decode, and emulate. By installing the RSM intercept we can avoid the instruction fetch since we know that #VMEXIT was due to rsm. The patch is required for the SEV guest, because in case of SEV guest memory is encrypted with guest-specific key and hypervisor will not able to fetch the instruction bytes from the guest memory.
