Move vmcs related codes into a new function vmx_vmcs_reset() from
vmx_vcpu_reset(). So that it's more clearer which data is related with
vmcs and can be held in vmcs.

I'd strongly prefer to keep the existing code.  For me, "vmcs_reset" means
zeroing out the VMCS, i.e. reset the VMCS to a virgin state.  "vcpu_reset"
means exactly that, stuff vCPU state to emulate RESET/INIT.

And the split is arbitrary and funky, e.g. EFER is integrated into the
VMCS on all recent CPUs, but here it's handled in vcpu_reset.


I left EFER in vcpu_reset() because it doesn't directly lead to a vmcs_write in vmx_set_efer().

OK. I'll drop this patch.
