Use the host save area to preserve volatile registers that are used in __svm_sev_es_vcpu_run() to access function parameters after #VMEXIT. Like saving/restoring non-volatile registers, there's no reason not to take advantage of hardware restoring registers on #VMEXIT, as doing so shaves a few instructions and the save area is going to be accessed no matter what. Converting all register save/restore code to use the host save area also make it easier to follow the SEV-ES VMRUN flow in its entirety, as opposed to having a mix of stack-based versus host save area save/restore. Add a parameter to RESTORE_HOST_SPEC_CTRL_BODY so that the SEV-ES path doesn't need to write @spec_ctrl_intercepted to memory just to play nice with the common macro.

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.
