To enable cross-vendor migration we use VMCB external variables to hold
the full 64bit value of the SYSENTER MSRs, which get truncated to 32bit

variables were only used in the emulation case, but were _always_ used
for migration purposes. This worked fine for cross-vendor migration in
compat mode, but did not work in pure legacy mode.
To fix this we always intercept the SYSENTER MSRs and store the values
both in the VMCB and the external variables. This works for all cases.

Hi Avi,
this should fix the problem seen by Stephane and Thomas this week.
Please revert 8b2f9d194288982d654c1afef491dfdf75ec1ba9 (your proposed fix,
which broke cross-vendor migration) and apply this patch afterwards.
It worked for me with both 32on32 and 32on64 migration both cross-vendor
and between two AMD machines.
Reverted and applied; thanks.
