Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: Add proper ReST tables for userspace MSR exits/flags

Add ReST formatting to the set of userspace MSR exits/flags so that the
resulting HTML docs generate a table instead of malformed gunk.  This
also fixes a warning that was introduced by a recent cleanup of the
relevant documentation (yay copy+paste).

Fixes: 1ae099540e8c ("KVM: x86: Allow deflecting unknown MSR accesses to user space")
Fixes: 1f158147181b ("KVM: x86: Clean up KVM_CAP_X86_USER_SPACE_MSR documentation")
