x86: asm/virtext.h: add cpu_vmxoff() inline function
Unfortunately we can't use exactly the same code from vmx hardware_disable(), because the KVM function uses the __kvm_handle_fault_on_reboot() tricks. Signed-off-by: Eduardo Habkost <ehabkost@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com>
