KVM: SEV: Do not intercept accesses to MSR_IA32_XSS for SEV-ES guests
When intercepts are enabled for MSR_IA32_XSS, the host will swap in/out the guest-defined values while context-switching to/from guest mode. However, in the case of SEV-ES, vcpu->arch.guest_state_protected is set, so the guest-defined value is effectively ignored when switching to guest mode with the understanding that the VMSA will handle swapping in/out this register state. However, SVM is still configured to intercept these accesses for SEV-ES guests, so the values in the initial MSR_IA32_XSS are effectively read-only, and a guest will experience undefined behavior if it actually tries to write to this MSR. Fortunately, only CET/shadowstack makes use of this register on SEV-ES-capable systems currently, which isn't yet widely used, but this may become more of an issue in the future. Additionally, enabling intercepts of MSR_IA32_XSS results in #VC exceptions in the guest in certain paths that can lead to unexpected #VC nesting levels. One example is SEV-SNP guests when handling #VC exceptions for CPUID instructions involving leaf 0xD, subleaf 0x1, since they will access MSR_IA32_XSS as part of servicing the CPUID #VC, then generate another #VC when accessing MSR_IA32_XSS, which can lead to guest crashes if an NMI occurs at that point in time. Running perf on a guest while it is issuing such a sequence is one example where these can be problematic. Address this by disabling intercepts of MSR_IA32_XSS for SEV-ES guests if the host/guest configuration allows it. If the host/guest configuration doesn't allow for MSR_IA32_XSS, leave it intercepted so that it can be caught by the existing checks in kvm_{set,get}_msr_common() if the guest still attempts to access it.
