According to section "Checks on VMX Controls" in Intel SDM vol 3C, the
following check needs to be enforced on vmentry of L2 guests:
    
    If the “enable VPID” VM-execution control is 1, the value of the
    of the VPID VM-execution control field must not be 0000H.

The first patch adds the required KVM check while the second one adds a
KVM unit test.
