Linux PV guests will attempt to read the FEATURE_CONTROL MSR, so move
the handling done in VMX code into guest_rdmsr as it can be shared
between PV and HVM guests that way.

Changes from v1:
 - Move the VMX implementation into guest_rdmsr.

The MSR is available if:

"If any one enumeration
condition for defined bit
field position greater than
bit 0 holds."

which for us means cp->basic.vmx || cp->feat.lmce at the moment, with
perhaps some smx/sgx in the future.

In particular, this MSR is available on Centaur and Shanghai, which
implement VT-x.

I don't think there's a lmce cpu bit (seems to be signaled in
IA32_MCG_CAP[27] = 1), maybe I should just use vmce_has_lmce?

if ( !cp->basic.vmx || !vmce_has_lmce(v) )
    goto gp_fault;

Is it fine however to return a #GP if we don't provide any of those
features to guests, but the underlying CPU does support them?

That seems to be slightly different from how we currently handle reads
to FEATURE_CONTROL, since it will never fault on Intel (or compliant),
even if we just return with bit 0 set alone. The new approach seems
closer to what real hardware would do.

Thanks, Roger.

Ah yes, sorry.

Eventually that will be mp->mcg_cap.lmce, but use the predicate for now.

Yes.  That is literally how the availability of the MSR specified by Intel.

Any code which doesn't follow those rules will find #GP even on some
recent CPUs.

Don't fall into the trap of assuming that the current MSR behaviour is
perfect, and something we wish to preserve. :)

Sure, I've pointed out the changes on the commit message, since the
behavior will be different now.
