x86, paravirt: Replace GET_CR2_INTO_RCX with GET_CR2_INTO_RAX
GET_CR2_INTO_RCX is asinine: it is only used in one place, the actual
paravirt call returns the value in %rax, not %rcx; and the one place
that wants it wants the result in %r9. We actually generate as a
result of this call:
call ...
movq %rax, %rcx
xorq %rax, %rax /* this value isn't even used... */
movq %rcx, %r9
At least make the macro do what the paravirt call does, which is put
the value into %rax.
Nevermind the fact that the macro clobbers all the volatile registers.
