On Intel, #DB exceptions transmit the DR6 value via the exit qualification
field of the VMCS, and the exit qualification only contains the description
of the precise event that caused a vmexit.
On AMD, instead the DR6 field of the VMCB is filled in as if the #DB exception
was to be injected into the guest. This has two effects when guest debugging
is in use:
* the guest DR6 is clobbered
* the kvm_run->debug.arch.dr6 field can accumulate more debug events, rather
than just the last one that happened.
Fortunately, if guest debugging is in use we debug register reads and writes
are always intercepted. Now that the guest DR6 is always synchronized with
vcpu->arch.dr6, we can just run the guest with an all-zero DR6 while guest
debugging is enabled, and restore the guest value when it is disabled. This
fixes both problems.
A testcase for the second issue is added in the next patch.
