This means that kvm_set_msr_common()'s handling of MSR_IA32_XSS also needs to
update kvm_update_cpuid_runtime(). And then for bnoth XCR0 and XSS, I would very
strongly prefer that use the helpers to write the values and let the helpers call
kvm_update_cpuid_runtime(). Yes, that will mean kvm_update_cpuid_runtime() may be
called multiple times during INIT, but that's already true (CR4), and this isn't
exactly a fast path.
