Subject: [PATCH v11 22/23] KVM: nVMX: Add consistency checks for CR0.WP and CR4.CET

Add consistency checks for CR4.CET and CR0.WP in guest-state or host-state
area in the VMCS12. This ensures that configurations with CR4.CET set and
CR0.WP not set result in VM-entry failure, aligning with architectural
behavior.
