In the current state of the sources, __debug_switch_to_host() seems to
save the guest debug state before restoring the host's:

	__debug_save_state(vcpu, guest_dbg, guest_ctxt);

Since you're splitting the switch_to into save/restore operations, it
feels like this would fit better __debug_save_guest_context() (currently
empty) rather than __debug_restore_host_context().

Cheers,
