It's OK to be stupid :-)

Thinking more about it, I'd suggest we go the other way around: allow
access to MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_EN when either KVM_FEATURE_ASYNC_PF or
KVM_FEATURE_ASYNC_PF_INT are present. This will allow to eventually
deprecate KVM_FEATURE_ASYNC_PF completely and switch to
KVM_FEATURE_ASYNC_PF_INT exclusively.
