When L0 establishes (or removes) an MSR entry in the VM-entry or VM-exit
MSR load lists, the change should affect the dormant VMCS as well as the
current VMCS. Moreover, the vmcs02 MSR-load addresses should be
initialized.

The fixes seem correct and nested performance is already sad, so
continually overwriting few constants won't hurt ...

Applied to kvm/queue, thanks.
