KVM: VMX: Don't intercept MSR_KERNEL_GS_BASE
Windows 2008 accesses this MSR often on context switch intensive workloads; since we run in guest context with the guest MSR value loaded (so swapgs can work correctly), we can simply disable interception of rdmsr/wrmsr for this MSR. A complication occurs since in legacy mode, we run with the host MSR value loaded. In this case we enable interception. This means we need two MSR bitmaps, one for legacy mode and one for long mode.
