From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx> According to the SDM, only bits 0-3 of DR6 "may" be cleared by "certain" debug exception. So do update them on #DB exception in KVM, but leave the rest alone, only setting BD and BS in addition to already set bits in DR6. This also aligns us with kvm_vcpu_check_singlestep.
