[PATCH 25/40] KVM: Ignore DEBUGCTL MSRs with no effect

[Avi Kivity]

From: Alexander Graf <agraf@xxxxxxx>

Netware writes to DEBUGCTL and reads from the DEBUGCTL and LAST*IP MSRs
without further checks and is really confused to receive a #GP during that.
To make it happy we should just make them stubs, which is exactly what SVM
already does.

Writes to DEBUGCTL that are vendor-specific are resembled to behave as if the
virtual CPU does not know them.
