[PATCH v2 2/4] x86: vmx: Allow direct access to MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL
From: KarimAllah Ahmed
Date: Sun Jan 28 2018 - 19:59:46 EST
Add direct access to MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL for guests. This is needed for
guests that will only mitigate Spectre V2 through IBRS+IBPB and will not
be using a retpoline+IBPB based approach.
To avoid the overhead of atomically saving and restoring the
MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL for guests that do not actually use the MSR, only
add_atomic_switch_msr when a non-zero is written to it.

v2:
- remove 'host_spec_ctrl' in favor of only a comment (dwmw@).
- special case writing '0' in SPEC_CTRL to avoid confusing live-migration
when the instance never used the MSR (dwmw@).
- depend on X86_FEATURE_IBRS instead of X86_FEATURE_SPEC_CTRL (dwmw@).
- add MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL to the list of MSRs to save (dropped it by accident).
