Ok. Sure. I will check and test few combinations to make sure of these
changes.

Yes, That is right. I will remove this.

Sean, I thought you mentioned earlier about not changing the interception
mechanism. Do you think we should disable the interception right away if
V_SPEC_CTRL is supported?

Ok. It appears the above code might work fine with changes in
svm_{get,set}_msr() to update save spec_ctlr. I will retest few
combinations to make sure it works.
Thanks
