This doesn't actually verify that @data == 0. kvm_pv_async_pf_enabled()
returns true iff KVM_ASYNC_PF_ENABLED and KVM_ASYNC_PF_DELIVERY_AS_INT are
set, e.g. this would allow setting one and not the other. This also allows
userspace to set vcpu->arch.apf.msr_en_val to an unsupported value, i.e.
@data has already been propagated to the vcpu and isn't unwound.
Why not just pivot on @data when lapic_in_kernel() is false? vcpu->arch.apic
is immutable so there's no need to update apf.msr_en_val in either direction.
