KVM: VMX: Save/restore rflags.vm correctly in real mode

(Cherry-picked from commit 78ac8b47c566dd6177a3b9b291b756ccb70670b7)

Currently we set eflags.vm unconditionally when entering real mode emulation
through virtual-8086 mode, and clear it unconditionally when we enter protected
mode.  The means that the following sequence

  KVM_SET_REGS  (rflags.vm=1)
  KVM_SET_SREGS (cr0.pe=1)

Ends up with rflags.vm clear due to KVM_SET_SREGS triggering enter_pmode().

Fix by shadowing rflags.vm (and rflags.iopl) correctly while in real mode:
reads and writes to those bits access a shadow register instead of the actual
register.
