Yeah, this belongs in setup_vmcs_config(), e.g. to guarantee that discrepancies
between CPUs are detected.  I would also strongly prefer this be squashed with
the patch(es) that introduce recognition of the FRED fields, if only so that we
can avoid "consistency checks" in the shortlog (I thought this patch was going
to disable FRED if a VM-Enter consistency check failed, which would be... interesting).
