[PATCH] xen/x86: Don't try to write syscall-related MSRs for PV guests

[Boris Ostrovsky]

For PV guests these registers are set up by hypervisor and thus
should not be written by the guest. The comment in xen_write_msr_safe()
says so but we still write the MSRs, causing the hypervisor to
print a warning.
