[PATCH 3/3] KVM: VMX: mark RDMSR path as unlikely

[Paolo Bonzini]

vmx_vcpu_run and svm_vcpu_run are large functions, and this can actually
make a substantial cycle difference by keeping the fast path contiguous
in memory.  Without it, the retpoline guest/retpoline host case is about
50 cycles slower.
