Extend KVM's suppression of failures due to a userspace access to an unsupported, but advertised as a "to save" MSR to all MSRs, not just those that happen to reach the default case statements in kvm_get_msr_common() and kvm_set_msr_common(). KVM's soon-to-be-established ABI is that if an MSR is advertised to userspace, then userspace is allowed to read the MSR, and write back the value that was read, i.e. why an MSR is unsupported doesn't change KVM's ABI. Practically speaking, this is very nearly a nop, as the only other paths that return KVM_MSR_RET_UNSUPPORTED are {svm,vmx}_get_feature_msr(), and it's unlikely, though not impossible, that userspace is using KVM_GET_MSRS on unsupported MSRs. The primary goal of moving the suppression to common code is to allow returning KVM_MSR_RET_UNSUPPORTED as appropriate throughout KVM, without having to manually handle the "is userspace accessing an advertised" waiver. I.e. this will allow formalizing KVM's ABI without incurring a high maintenance cost.
