Subject: [PATCH 02/14] KVM: x86: Prevent host from panicking on shared MSR writes.

From: Andy Honig <ahonig@...gle.com>

The previous patch blocked invalid writes directly when the MSR
is written.  As a precaution, prevent future similar mistakes by
gracefulling handle GPs caused by writes to shared MSRs.
