KVM: VMX: Fix host initiated access to guest MSR_TSC_AUX
[ Upstream commit 81b1b9ca6d5ca5f3ce91c0095402def657cf5db3 ] The current handling of accesses to guest MSR_TSC_AUX returns error if vcpu does not support rdtscp, though those accesses are initiated by host. This can result in the reboot failure of some versions of QEMU. This patch fixes this issue by passing those host initiated accesses for further handling instead.
