commit 3943abf2dbfae9ea4d2da05c1db569a0603f76da upstream.
local_db_save() is called at the start of exc_debug_kernel(), reads DR7 and
disables breakpoints to prevent recursion.
When running in a guest (X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR), local_db_save() reads the
per-cpu variable cpu_dr7 to check whether a breakpoint is active or not
before it accesses DR7.
A data breakpoint on cpu_dr7 therefore results in infinite #DB recursion.
Disallow data breakpoints on cpu_dr7 to prevent that.
Fixes: 84b6a3491567a("x86/entry: Optimize local_db_save() for virt")
