KVM: SVM: hide TF/RF flags used by NMI singlestep
These flags are used internally by SVM so it's cleaner to not leak them to callers of svm_get_rflags. This is similar to how the TF flag is handled on KVM_GUESTDBG_SINGLESTEP by kvm_get_rflags and kvm_set_rflags. Without this change, the flags may propagate from host VMCB to nested VMCB or vice versa while singlestepping over a nested VM enter/exit, and then get stuck in inappropriate places. Example: NMI singlestepping is enabled while running L1 guest. The instruction to step over is VMRUN and nested vmrun emulation stashes rflags to hsave->save.rflags. Then if singlestepping is disabled while still in L2, TF/RF will be cleared from the nested VMCB but the next nested VM exit will restore them from hsave->save.rflags and cause an unexpected DB exception.
