Subject: [PATCH v5 16/19] KVM: VMX: Check for full VMX support when verifying CPU compatibility

Explicitly check the current CPU's IA32_FEAT_CTL and VMX feature flags
when verifying compatibility across physical CPUs.  This effectively
adds a check on IA32_FEAT_CTL to ensure that VMX is fully enabled on
all CPUs.
