Subject: KVM: x86: trap AMD MSRs for the TSeg base and mask

From: Paolo Bonzini <[email protected]>

commit 3afb1121800128aae9f5722e50097fcf1a9d4d88 upstream.

These have roughly the same purpose as the SMRR, which we do not need
to implement in KVM.  However, Linux accesses MSR_K8_TSEG_ADDR at
boot, which causes problems when running a Xen dom0 under KVM.
Just return 0, meaning that processor protection of SMRAM is not
in effect.
