x86/debug: Fix stack recursion caused by wrongly ordered DR7 accesses

In kernels compiled with CONFIG_PARAVIRT=n, the compiler re-orders the DR7 read in exc_nmi() to happen before the call to sev_es_ist_enter().

This is problematic when running as an SEV-ES guest because in this environment the DR7 read might cause a #VC exception, and taking #VC exceptions is not safe in exc_nmi() before sev_es_ist_enter() has run.

The result is stack recursion if the NMI was caused on the #VC IST stack, because a subsequent #VC exception in the NMI handler will overwrite the stack frame of the interrupted #VC handler.

As there are no compiler barriers affecting the ordering of DR7 reads/writes, make the accesses to this register volatile, forbidding the compiler to re-order them.

[ bp: Massage text, make them volatile too, to make sure some aggressive compiler optimization pass doesn't discard them. ]
