To reduce the scope of the workaround.

The errata only happens when you use one of SVM instructions
in the guest with EAX that happens to be inside one
of the host reserved memory regions (for example SMM).

So it is not expected for an SVM instruction with EAX that is a valid host
physical address to get a #GP due to this errata.
