Load/Store Intel Processor Trace register in context switch.
MSR IA32_RTIT_CTL is loaded/stored automatically from VMCS.
In Host-Guest mode, we need load/resore PT MSRs only when PT
is enabled in guest.

Intel Processor Trace virtualization can be work in one
of 2 possible modes:
a. System-Wide mode (default):
When the host configures Intel PT to collect trace packets
of the entire system, it can leave the relevant VMX controls
clear to allow VMX-specific packets to provide information
across VMX transitions.
KVM guest will not aware this feature in this mode and both
host and KVM guest trace will output to host buffer.
b. Host-Guest mode:
Host can configure trace-packet generation while in
VMX non-root operation for guests and root operation
for native executing normally.
Intel PT will be exposed to KVM guest in this mode, and
the trace output to respective buffer of host and guest.
In this mode, tht status of PT will be saved and disabled
before VM-entry and restored after VM-exit if trace
a virtual machine.

Exposing only the function allows @nested, i.e. the module param, to be
statically defined in vmx.c, ensuring we aren't unnecessarily checking
said variable in the nested code. nested_vmx_allowed() is exposed due
to the need to verify nested support in vmx_{get,set}_nested_state().
The downside is that nested_vmx_allowed() likely won't be inlined in
vmx_{get,set}_nested_state(), but that should be a non-issue as they're
not a hot path. Keeping vmx_{get,set}_nested_state() in vmx.c isn't a
viable option as they need access to several nested-only functions.

...as they're used directly by the nested code. This will allow
moving the bulk of the nested code out of vmx.c without concurrent
changes to vmx.h.

Exposed vmx_msr_index, vmx_return and host_efer via vmx.h so that the
nested code can be moved out of vmx.c.

VMX has a few hundred lines of code just to wrap various VMX specific
instructions, e.g. VMWREAD, INVVPID, etc... Move them to a dedicated
header so it's easier to find/isolate the boilerplate.
With this change, more inlines can be moved from vmx.c to vmx.h.
