KVM: x86: Grab regs_dirty in local 'unsigned long'
Capture ctxt->regs_dirty in a local 'unsigned long' instead of casting it to an 'unsigned long *' for use in for_each_set_bit(). The bitops helpers really do read the entire 'unsigned long', even though the walking of the read value is capped at the specified size. I.e. 64-bit KVM is reading memory beyond ctxt->regs_dirty, which is a u32 and thus 4 bytes, whereas an unsigned long is 8 bytes. Functionally it's not an issue because regs_dirty is in the middle of x86_emulate_ctxt, i.e. KVM is just reading its own memory, but relying on that coincidence is gross and unsafe.
