KVM: Fix potential guest state leak into host

The lightweight vmexit path avoids saving and reloading certain host
state.  However in certain cases lightweight vmexit handling can schedule()
which requires reloading the host state.

So we store the host state in the vcpu structure, and reloaded it if we
relinquish the vcpu.
