[PATCH 02/14] KVM: x86: Prevent host from panicking on shared MSR writes.

From: Paolo Bonzini
Date: Fri Oct 24 2014 - 11:15:11 EST


From: Andy Honig <ahonig@xxxxxxxxxx>

The previous patch blocked invalid writes directly when the MSR
is written. As a precaution, prevent future similar mistakes by
gracefulling handle GPs caused by writes to shared MSRs.
