Lai Jiangshan 30031c2b05 KVM: x86: Let the guest own CR4.FSGSBASE
Add FSGSBASE to the set of possible guest-owned CR4 bits, i.e. let the
guest own it on VMX.  KVM never queries the guest's CR4.FSGSBASE value,
thus there is no reason to force VM-Exit on FSGSBASE being toggled.

Note, because FSGSBASE is conditionally available, this is dependent on
recent changes to intercept reserved CR4 bits and to update the CR4
guest/host mask in response to guest CPUID changes.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
