KVM: VMX: fix vmwrite to invalid VMCS
fpu_activate is called outside of vcpu_load(), which means it should not touch VMCS, but fpu_activate needs to. Avoid the call by moving it to a point where we know that the guest needs eager FPU and VMCS is loaded. This will get rid of the following trace vmwrite error: reg 6800 value 0 (err 1) [<ffffffff8162035b>] dump_stack+0x19/0x1b [<ffffffffa046c701>] vmwrite_error+0x2c/0x2e [kvm_intel] [<ffffffffa045f26f>] vmcs_writel+0x1f/0x30 [kvm_intel] [<ffffffffa04617e5>] vmx_fpu_activate.part.61+0x45/0xb0 [kvm_intel] [<ffffffffa0461865>] vmx_fpu_activate+0x15/0x20 [kvm_intel] [<ffffffffa0560b91>] kvm_arch_vcpu_create+0x51/0x70 [kvm] [<ffffffffa0548011>] kvm_vm_ioctl+0x1c1/0x760 [kvm] [<ffffffff8118b55a>] ? handle_mm_fault+0x49a/0xec0 [<ffffffff811e47d5>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x2e5/0x4c0 [<ffffffff8127abbe>] ? file_has_perm+0xae/0xc0 [<ffffffff811e4a51>] SyS_ioctl+0xa1/0xc0 [<ffffffff81630949>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b (Note: we also unconditionally activate FPU in vmx_vcpu_reset(), so the removed code added nothing.)
