I don't know if we care (yet?), but this is going to be unnecessarily
slow because of the implicit rdmsr.  You could add a percpu shadow
copy of MISC_FEATURES_ENABLES, initialized during boot, and avoid the
rdmsr.

This check seems confused.  If this flag were preserved on execve,
it's the SIGSEGV mode that would need the check.

Off-topic and not needed for this patch, but IMO we should move all of
this context switch junk out of ti.flags and into thread_struct
somewhere.
