Export __this_cpu_ist_top_va() to allow KVM to retrieve the per-CPU
exception stack top.

FRED introduced new fields in the host-state area of the VMCS for stack
levels 1->3 (HOST_IA32_FRED_RSP[123]), each respectively corresponding to
per-CPU exception stacks for #DB, NMI and #DF.  KVM must populate these
fields each time a vCPU is loaded onto a CPU.
