[PATCH v14 11/13] KVM: VMX: Pass through CET MSRs to the guest when supported

From: Yang Weijiang
Date: Thu Nov 05 2020 - 20:06:41 EST


Pass through all CET MSRs when the associated CET component (kernel vs.
user) is enabled to improve guest performance. All CET MSRs are context
switched, either via dedicated VMCS fields or XSAVES.
