MIPS: KVM: Restore host EBase from ebase variable
The host kernel's exception vector base address is currently saved in the VCPU structure at creation time, and restored on a guest exit. However it doesn't change and can already be easily accessed from the 'ebase' variable (arch/mips/kernel/traps.c), so drop the host_ebase member of kvm_vcpu_arch, export the 'ebase' variable to modules and load from there instead. This does result in a single extra instruction (lui) on the guest exit path, but simplifies the code a bit and removes the redundant storage of the host exception base address. Credit for the idea goes to Cavium's VZ KVM implementation.
