Subject: [PATCH v3] KVM: VMX: add MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL into msrs_to_save

Add MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL into msrs_to_save[] to explicitly tell userspace to
save/restore the register value during migration. Missing this may cause
userspace that relies on KVM ioctl(KVM_GET_MSR_INDEX_LIST) fail to port the
value to the target VM.

In addition, there is no need to add MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL when
ARCH_CAP_TSX_CTRL_MSR is not supported in kvm_get_arch_capabilities(). So
add the checking in kvm_probe_msr_to_save().

Fixes: c11f83e0626b ("KVM: vmx: implement MSR_IA32_TSX_CTRL disable RTM functionality")

Since this is probably the final version, I hope Sean or Paolo would
help add them up before merging it. Appreciate your help. Thanks.
