Currently, LBR Virtualization is dynamically enabled and disabled for
a vcpu by intercepting writes to MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR. This helps by
avoiding unnecessary save/restore of LBR MSRs when nobody is using it
in the guest. However, SEV-ES guest mandates LBR Virtualization to be
_always_ ON[1] and thus this dynamic toggling doesn't work for SEV-ES
guest, in fact it results into fatal error:
SEV-ES guest on Zen3, kvm-amd.ko loaded with lbrv=1
[guest ~]# wrmsr 0x1d9 0x4
KVM: entry failed, hardware error 0xffffffff
EAX=00000004 EBX=00000000 ECX=000001d9 EDX=00000000
...
Fix this by never intercepting MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR for SEV-ES guests.
No additional save/restore logic is required since MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR
is of swap type A.
