This function only ever gets called if the vm_event response
specifically has the VM_EVENT_FLAG_SET_REGISTERS set, so accidental
clobbering is not possible. Also, using WRITE_SYSREG() is not safe at
this point because current != v. However, I have another issue here
with regs which should actually be:
struct cpu_user_regs *regs = &v->arch.cpu_info->guest_cpu_user_regs;
I'll fix that shortly.
Thanks,
Tamas
