  KVM: VMX: make MSR bitmaps per-VCPU (2018-01-26 22:59:32 +0100)

The patches are on top of Linus's tree and I checked that they apply okay
on top of the latest 4.14 tree as well as required for tip x86/pti.
One extra commit is needed that is pretty safe and would have been merged
next week.

Radim, please pull this into kvm.git too.  The merge is a bit messy, so I've
placed my resolution on kvm.git, branch refs/heads/msr-bitmaps-merge-resolution.
It's based on kvm/queue, assuming that all of kvm/queue will get into the
pull requests for the 4.16 merge window (and thus soonish in kvm/next).
Hopefully the next few releases will be much more uneventful...

Thanks,

Paolo
