msr_info->host_initiated is always going to return true, so it would be
better to put it outside of __set_mci_status.

Maybe we could just write the whole logic inline, otherwise I'd call it
something like mci_status_is_writeable.

if (!msr_info->host_initiated &&
(offset & 0x3) == 1 && data != 0) {
struct msr_data tmp = {.index = MSR_K7_HWCR};

if (!guest_cpuid_is_amd(vcpu) ||

!(tmp.data & BIT_ULL(18)))
return -1;
