Subject[PATCH 29/31] KVM: SVM: remove selective CR0 comment
Date
From: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@amd.com>

There is not selective cr0 intercept bug. The code in the comment sets the
CR0.PG bit. But KVM sets the CR4.PG bit for SVM always to implement the paged
real mode. So the 'mov %eax,%cr0' instruction does not change the CR0.PG bit.
Selective CR0 intercepts only occur when a bit is actually changed. So its the
right behavior that there is no intercept on this instruction.
