Rework the resetting of the MSR bitmap for x2APIC MSRs to ignore userspace filtering. Allowing userspace to intercept reads to x2APIC MSRs when APICV is fully enabled for the guest simply can't work; the LAPIC and thus virtual APIC is in-kernel and cannot be directly accessed by userspace. To keep things simple we will in fact forbid intercepting x2APIC MSRs altogether, independent of the default_allow setting.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
