KVM: nVMX: Let the compiler select the reg for holding HOST_RSP
...and provide an explicit name for the constraint. Naming the input constraint makes the code self-documenting and also avoids the fragility of numerically referring to constraints, e.g. %4 breaks badly whenever the constraints are modified. Explicitly using RDX was inherited from vCPU-run, i.e. completely arbitrary. Even vCPU-run doesn't truly need to explicitly use RDX, but doing so is more robust as vCPU-run needs tight control over its register usage. Note that while the naming "conflict" between host_rsp and HOST_RSP is slightly confusing, the former will be renamed slightly in a future patch, at which point HOST_RSP is absolutely what is desired.
