KVM: SVM: Fix TSC_AUX virtualization setup

commit e0096d01 upstream.

The checks for virtualizing TSC_AUX occur during the vCPU reset processing
path. However, at the time of initial vCPU reset processing, when the vCPU
is first created, not all of the guest CPUID information has been set. In
this case the RDTSCP and RDPID feature support for the guest is not in
place and so TSC_AUX virtualization is not established.

This continues for each vCPU created for the guest. On the first boot of
an AP, vCPU reset processing is executed as a result of an APIC INIT
event, this time with all of the guest CPUID information set, resulting
in TSC_AUX virtualization being enabled, but only for the APs. The BSP
always sees a TSC_AUX value of 0 which probably went unnoticed because,
at least for Linux, the BSP TSC_AUX value is 0.

Move the TSC_AUX virtualization enablement out of the init_vmcb() path and
into the vcpu_after_set_cpuid() path to allow for proper initialization of
the support after the guest CPUID information has been set.

With the TSC_AUX virtualization support now in the vcpu_set_after_cpuid()
path, the intercepts must be either cleared or set based on the guest
CPUID input.
