Sean Christopherson 9389b9d5d3 KVM: VMX: Ignore userspace MSR filters for x2APIC
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.
