I did some quick testing and found my original logic was flawed. Since
spec_ctrl_update_msr() can now be called for STIBP, an additional check
is needed to set the SSBD MSR bit.

Both X86_FEATURE_VIRT_SSBD and X86_FEATURE_LS_CFG_SSBD cause
X86_FEATURE_SSBD to be set. Before this patch, spec_ctrl_update_msr() was
only called if X86_FEATURE_SSBD was set and one of the other SSBD features
wasn't set. But now, STIBP can cause spec_ctrl_update_msr() to get called
and cause the SSBD MSR bit to be set when it shouldn't (could result in
a GP fault).

Thanks,
Tom
