SYSCALL isn't supported in compatibility mode on Intel CPUs, so IA32_CSTAR is not used (except as 48 bits of storage). It's pointless to load the guest's IA32_CSTAR value into the hardware MSR. Note that we continue to enumerate the MSR in vmx_msr_index[] to provide the aforementioned 48 bits of storage.
