Clean up SVM's enter/exit assembly code so that it can be compiled without OBJECT_FILES_NON_STANDARD. The "standard" __svm_vcpu_run() can't be made 100% bulletproof, as RBP isn't restored on #VMEXIT, but that's also the case for __vmx_vcpu_run(), and getting "close enough" is better than not even trying. As for SEV-ES, after yet another refresher on swap types, I realized KVM can simply let the hardware restore registers after #VMEXIT, all that's missing is storing the current values to the host save area (they are swap type B). This should provide 100% accuracy when using stack frames for unwinding, and requires less assembly. In between, build the SEV-ES code iff CONFIG_KVM_AMD_SEV=y, and yank out "support" for 32-bit kernels in __svm_sev_es_vcpu_run, which was unnecessarily polluting the code for a configuration that is disabled at build time.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
