From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx> commit cbbaa2727aa3ae9e0a844803da7cef7fd3b94f2b upstream. KVM does not implement MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL, so it must not be presented to the guests. It is also confusing to have !ARCH_CAP_TSX_CTRL_MSR && !RTM && ARCH_CAP_TAA_NO: lack of MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL suggests TSX was not hidden (it actually was), yet the value says that TSX is not vulnerable to microarchitectural data sampling. Fix both.
