KVM: Workaround vmx inability to virtualize the reset state

Browse source 
The reset state has cs.selector == 0xf000 and cs.base == 0xffff0000,
which aren't compatible with vm86 mode, which is used for real mode
virtualization.

When we create a vcpu, we set cs.base to 0xf0000, but if we get there by
way of a reset, the values are inconsistent and vmx refuses to enter
guest mode.

Workaround by detecting the state and munging it appropriately.
