Subject[patch v2 1/2] x86,module: Detect VMX modules and disable Split-Lock-Detect

I picked VMXOFF (which also appears in vmmon.ko) instead of VMXON
because that latter takes an argument is therefore more difficult to
decode.

Subject: x86,module: Detect VMX modules and disable Split-Lock-Detect
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>

It turns out that with Split-Lock-Detect enabled (default) any VMX
hypervisor needs at least a little modification in order to not blindly
inject the #AC into the guest without the guest being ready for it.

Since there is no telling which module implements a hypervisor, scan the
module text and look for the VMLAUNCH/VMXOFF instructions. If found, the
module is assumed to be a hypervisor of some sort and SLD is disabled.

Hypervisors, which have been modified and are known to work correctly,
can add:

MODULE_INFO(sld_safe, "Y");

to explicitly tell the module loader they're good.

NOTE: it is unfortunate that struct load_info is not available to the
arch module code, this means CONFIG_CPU_SUP_INTEL gunk is needed
in generic code.

NOTE: while we can 'trivially' fix KVM, we're still stuck with stuff
like VMware and VirtualBox doing their own thing.
