Subject: [PATCH 41/41] KVM: SVM: enable LBRV virtualization if available

From: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@....com>

This patch enables the virtualization of the last branch record MSRs on
SVM if this feature is available in hardware. It also introduces a small
and simple check feature for specific SVM extensions.
