From: Simon Guo <wei.guo.simon@xxxxxxxxx>
MSR TS bits can be modified with non-privileged instruction like
tbegin./tend. That means guest can change MSR value "silently" without
notifying host.
It is necessary to sync the TM bits to host so that host can calculate
shadow msr correctly.
note privilege guest will always fail transactions so we only take
care of problem state guest.
