what's the purpose of disabling preemption?

You don't need to reset the MSR because current host doesn't enable SSS
and leaving guest value in the MSR won't affect host behavior.

save/load PLx_SSP in kvm_sched_in/out() and in VCPU_RUN ioctl is sub-optimal.

How about:
1. expose kvm_save/reload_cet_supervisor_ssp()
2. reload guest PLx_SSP in {vmx,svm}_prepare_switch_to_guest()
3. save guest PLx_SSP in vmx_prepare_switch_to_host() and
   svm_prepare_host_switch()?

this way existing svm/vmx->guest_state_loaded can help to reduce a lot of
unnecessary PLx_SSP MSR accesses.

@cpu its meaning isn't clear and isn't used and ...

passing 0 always looks problematic.
