L2 guest crash during boot if VPID is enabled on L1 and disabled on L0. This 
also can be catched by kvm-unit-tests/vmx.flat when VPID is disabled on L0.

KVM: entry failed, hardware error 0x7

The enable_vpid sysfs perm parameter miss the 0 prefix, so the enable_vpid 
is failed to be disabled though vmcs_config bit is not set. This patch fixes 
it by utilizing S_IRUGO which includes 0 prefix instead.

I couldn't reproduce the hardware error.  Unit test just got #UD and
exited, which seems to be because KVM doesn't add the exec controls in
vmcs02.

Aren't "0444" and "(00400 | 00040 | 00004)" the same number?

I'm not convinced this patch fixes anything and I think we have two
options when approaching VPID:
 1) hide and forbid VPIDs in L1 if they are disabled on L0
 2) expose VPID hardware to L1 regardless of L0 settings

We treat other features like (1), because it simplifies implementation,
so I'd do the same for VPID ...

I fix this unit test #UD in v2 1/3, and the above crash in v2 2/3.

Yeah, maybe I'm too tired yesterday and more coffee is really appreciated. :)

Good point. Please review v2. :)
