Subject: [PATCH 3.16 34/99] kvm: vmx: Set IA32_TSC_AUX for legacy mode guests

3.16.65-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Jim Mattson <jmattson@...gle.com>

commit 0023ef39dc35c773c436eaa46ca539a26b308b55 upstream.

RDTSCP is supported in legacy mode as well as long mode. The
IA32_TSC_AUX MSR should be set to the correct guest value before
entering any guest that supports RDTSCP.

Fixes: 4e47c7a6d714 ("KVM: VMX: Add instruction rdtscp support for guest")

[bwh: Backported to 3.16:
 - Keep testing vmx->rdtscp_enabled instead of guest_cpuid_has()
 - Adjust filename]
