Subject: [PATCH 0/2] KVM: VMX: Clean up of vmx_set_cr4()

Two minor patches of vmx_set_cr4() during code inspection.

Patch 1 gets rid of the direct accessing of vcpu->arch.cr4 to avoid
stale value.

Patch 2 moves the code comment to correct place.

Xiaoyao Li (2):
  KVM: VMX: Use kvm_read_cr4() to get cr4 value
  KVM: VMX: Move the comment of CR4.MCE handling right above the code
