Subject: kaiser: fix regs to do_nmi() ifndef CONFIG_KAISER

From: Hugh Dickins <hughd@google.com>


pjt has observed that nmi's second (nmi_from_kernel) call to do_nmi()
adjusted the %rdi regs arg, rightly when CONFIG_KAISER, but wrongly
when not CONFIG_KAISER.

Although the minimal change is to add an #ifdef CONFIG_KAISER around
the addq line, that looks cluttered, and I prefer how the first call
to do_nmi() handled it: prepare args in %rdi and %rsi before getting
into the CONFIG_KAISER block, since it does not touch them at all.

And while we're here, place the "#ifdef CONFIG_KAISER" that follows
each, to enclose the "Unconditionally restore CR3" comment: matching
how the "Unconditionally use kernel CR3" comment above is enclosed.
