Subject[PATCH 1/3] KVM: x86: block guest protection keys unless the host has them enabled
Date
If the host has protection keys disabled, we cannot read and write the
guest PKRU---RDPKRU and WRPKRU fail with #GP(0) if CR4.PKE=0. Block
the PKU cpuid bit in that case.

This ensures that guest_CR4.PKE=1 implies host_CR4.PKE=1.
