Unconditionally servicing Hyper-V and KVM MSRs seems wrong, i.e. KVM
should only expose MSRs specific to a hypervisor if userspace has
configured CPUID to advertise support for said hypervisor. If we do the
same thing for Xen, then the common MSR code looks like:
if (kvm_advertise_kvm()) {
if (<handle kvm msr>)
return ...;
} else if (kvm_advertise_hyperv()) {
if (<handle hyperv msr>)
return ...;
} else if (kvm_advertise_xen()) {
if (<handle xen msrs>)
return ...;
}
<fall through to main switch statement>
Obviously assumes KVM only advertises itself as one hypervisor, and so
the ordering is arbitrary.
