I slightly prefer controls64 over controls_64.  As usual, KVM is inconsistent as
a whole, but vmcs_read/write64 omit the underscore, so we can at least be somewhat
consistent within VMX.

Eh, just drop @ctl_min.  Practically speaking, there is zero chance tertiary
controls or any other control of this nature will ever be mandatory.  Secondary
controls would fall into the same boat, but specifying min=0 allows it to share
helpers, so it's the lesser of evils.

With the error return gone, this can be

   static __init u64 adjust_vmx_controls64(u64 ctl_opt, u32 msr)
   {
	u64 allowed;

	rdmsrl(msr, allowed);

	return ctl_opt & allowed;
   }

Make sense. I will change it.  Thanks.


Alternatively, we could take the control-to-modify directly and have no return,
but I like having the "u64 opt = ..." in the caller.
