KVM: vmx: track host_state.loaded using a loaded_vmcs pointer
Using 'struct loaded_vmcs*' to track whether the CPU registers contain host or guest state kills two birds with one stone. 1. The (effective) boolean host_state.loaded is poorly named. It does not track whether or not host state is loaded into the CPU registers (which most readers would expect), but rather tracks if host state has been saved AND guest state is loaded. 2. Using a loaded_vmcs pointer provides a more robust framework for the optimized guest/host state switching, especially when consideration per-VMCS enhancements. To that end, WARN_ONCE if we try to switch to host state with a different VMCS than was last used to save host state. Resolve an occurrence of the new WARN by setting loaded_vmcs after the call to vmx_vcpu_put() in vmx_switch_vmcs().
