[PATCH v3 2/4] KVM: SVM: Clear MSR_TSC_AUX[63:32] on write

[Sean Christopherson]

Force clear bits 63:32 of MSR_TSC_AUX on write to emulate current AMD
CPUs, which completely ignore the upper 32 bits, including dropping them
on write.  Emulating AMD hardware will also allow migrating a vCPU from
AMD hardware to Intel hardware without requiring userspace to manually
clear the upper bits, which are reserved on Intel hardware.

Presumably, MSR_TSC_AUX[63:32] are intended to be reserved on AMD, but
sadly the APM doesn't say _anything_ about those bits in the context of
MSR access.  The RDTSCP entry simply states that RCX contains bits 31:0
of the MSR, zero extended.  And even worse is that the RDPID description
implies that it can consume all 64 bits of the MSR:

  RDPID reads the value of TSC_AUX MSR used by the RDTSCP instruction
  into the specified destination register. Normal operand size prefixes
  do not apply and the update is either 32 bit or 64 bit based on the
  current mode.

Emulate current hardware behavior to give KVM the best odds of playing
nice with whatever the behavior of future AMD CPUs happens to be.
