      KVM: nVMX: Prepare for using hardware MSR bitmap · 3af18d9c

      Currently, if L1 enables MSR_BITMAP, we will emulate this feature, all
      of L2's msr access is intercepted by L0.  Features like "virtualize
      x2apic mode" require that the MSR bitmap is enabled, or the hardware
      will exit and for example not virtualize the x2apic MSRs.  In order to
      let L1 use these features, we need to build a merged bitmap that only
      not cause a VMEXIT if 1) L1 requires that 2) the bit is not required by
      the processor for APIC virtualization.
      
      For now the guests are still run with MSR bitmap disabled, but this
      patch already introduces nested_vmx_merge_msr_bitmap for future use.
