KVM: x86: Split kvm_is_valid_cr4() and export only the non-vendor bits
Split the common x86 parts of kvm_is_valid_cr4(), i.e. the reserved bits checks, into a separate helper, __kvm_is_valid_cr4(), and export only the inner helper to vendor code in order to prevent nested VMX from calling back into vmx_is_valid_cr4() via kvm_is_valid_cr4(). On SVM, this is a nop as SVM doesn't place any additional restrictions on CR4. On VMX, this is also currently a nop, but only because nested VMX is missing checks on reserved CR4 bits for nested VM-Enter. That bug will be fixed in a future patch, and could simply use kvm_is_valid_cr4() as-is, but nVMX has _another_ bug where VMXON emulation doesn't enforce VMX's restrictions on CR0/CR4. The cleanest and most intuitive way to fix the VMXON bug is to use nested_host_cr{0,4}_valid(). If the CR4 variant routes through kvm_is_valid_cr4(), using nested_host_cr4_valid() won't do the right thing for the VMXON case as vmx_is_valid_cr4() enforces VMX's restrictions if and only if the vCPU is post-VMXON.
