I think it should be safe for userspace to skip restoring CR4_FIXED1,
since it is 100% generated based on CPUID. But I'd prefer to keep it
accessible from userspace, for consistency with the other VMX MSRs and
for flexibility. The auditing should ensure userspace doesn't restore
a CR4_FIXED1 that is inconsistent with CPUID.

Userspace should restore CR0_FIXED1 in case future CPUs change which
bits of CR0 are valid in VMX operation. Userspace should also restore
CR{0,4}_FIXED0 so we have the flexibility to change the defaults in
KVM. Both of these situations seem unlikely but we might as well play
it safe, the cost is small.
