The result is that the VRSAVE value was loaded from a constant address, and saved to a location past the end of the vcpu struct, causing host kernel memory corruption and various kinds of host kernel crashes. This fixes the problem by using register r31, which contains the vcpu pointer, instead of r3 and r4.
