[PATCH v2 05/16] KVM: VMX: Drop initialization of IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL MSR

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Mon Oct 21 2019 - 20:08:36 EST


Remove the code to initialize IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL MSR when KVM is
loaded now that the MSR is initialized during boot on all CPUs that
support VMX, i.e. can possibly load kvm_intel.
