Now that VMREAD flows require a taken branch, courtesy of commit
3901336ed9 ("x86/kvm: Don't call kvm_spurious_fault() from .fixup")
bite the bullet and add full error handling to VMREAD, i.e. replace the
JMP added by __ex()/____kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot() with a hinted Jcc.
To minimize the code footprint, add a helper function, vmread_error(),
to handle both faults and failures so that the inline flow has a single
CALL.

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 Restructured Text 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.
