Yes it absolutely does. cpu_has_secondary_exec_ctrls() checks if the VMCS field
_exists_, not if it's being used by KVM (though that's a moot point since KVM
always enables secondary controls when it's supported). VMWRITE to non-existent
fields cause VM-Fail.
ELSIF secondary source operand does not correspond to any VMCS field
THEN VMfailValid(VMREAD/VMWRITE from/to unsupported VMCS component);
