    xpti: fix bug in double fault handling
    
    When entering the hypervisor via the double fault handler resetting
    xen_cr3 was missing. This led to switching to pv_cr3 when returning
    from the next following exception, so repair this in order to allow
    exception handling to work even after a double fault.
