KVM: VMX: Drop bits 31:16 when shoving exception error code into VMCS
Deliberately truncate the exception error code when shoving it into the VMCS (VM-Entry field for vmcs01 and vmcs02, VM-Exit field for vmcs12). Intel CPUs are incapable of handling 32-bit error codes and will never generate an error code with bits 31:16, but userspace can provide an arbitrary error code via KVM_SET_VCPU_EVENTS. Failure to drop the bits on exception injection results in failed VM-Entry, as VMX disallows setting bits 31:16. Setting the bits on VM-Exit would at best confuse L1, and at worse induce a nested VM-Entry failure, e.g. if L1 decided to reinject the exception back into L2.
