x86/nmi/64: Switch stacks on userspace NMI entry
Returning to userspace is tricky: IRET can fail, and ESPFIX can
rearrange the stack prior to IRET.
The NMI nesting fixup relies on a precise stack layout and
atomic IRET. Rather than trying to teach the NMI nesting fixup
to handle ESPFIX and failed IRET, punt: run NMIs that came from
user mode on the normal kernel stack.
This will make some nested NMIs visible to C code, but the C
code is okay with that.
As a side effect, this should speed up perf: it eliminates an
RDMSR when NMIs come from user mode.
