[PATCH v3 3/4] xen/pv: refactor msr access functions to support safe and unsafe accesses

[Juergen Gross]

Refactor and rename xen_read_msr_safe() and xen_write_msr_safe() to
support both cases of MSR accesses, safe ones and potentially GP-fault
generating ones.

This will prepare to no longer swallow GPs silently in xen_read_msr()
and xen_write_msr().

- init val in xen_do_read_msr() to 0 (Jan Beulich)
