Move CR0 caching into the standard register caching mechanism in order to take advantage of the availability checks provided by regs_avail. This avoids multiple VMREADs in the (uncommon) case where kvm_read_cr0() is called multiple times in a single VM-Exit, and more importantly eliminates a kvm_x86_ops hook, saves a retpoline on SVM when reading CR0, and squashes the confusing naming discrepancy of "cache_reg" vs. "decache_cr0_guest_bits". No functional change intended.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
