Patch# 1: Moves the setter/getter functions for the DR registers, to the
	  common library so that other tests can re-use them.
Patch# 2: Adds the #define for the RF bit in EFLAGS register.
Patch# 3: Adds a test for the behavior of host EFLAGS.RF bit on VMRUN,
	  based on the following from section "VMRUN and TF/RF Bits in
	  EFLAGS" in APM vol 2,

	      "EFLAGS.RF suppresses any potential instruction breakpoint
	       match on the VMRUN. Completion of the VMRUN instruction
	       instruction clears the host EFLAGS.RF bit."


[PATCH 1/3] Test: x86: Move setter/getter for Debug registers to
[PATCH 2/3] Test: x86: Add a #define for the RF bit in EFLAGS
[PATCH 3/3] Test: nSVM: Test effects of host EFLAGS.RF on VMRUN
