Subject: [PATCH 2/3] x86/paravirt: Add paravirt_{read,write}_msr

This adds paravirt hooks for unsafe MSR access.  On native, they
call native_{read,write}_msr.  On Xen, they use
xen_{read,write}_msr_safe.

Nothing uses them yet for ease of bisection.  The next patch will
use them in rdmsrl, wrmsrl, etc.

I intentionally didn't make them OOPS on #GP on Xen.  I think that
should be done separately by the Xen maintainers.
