Inject #UD when emulating XSETBV if CR4.OSXSAVE is not set. This also
covers the "XSAVE not supported" check, as setting CR4.OSXSAVE=1 #GPs if
XSAVE is not supported (and userspace gets to keep the pieces if it
forces incoherent vCPU state).
Add a comment to kvm_emulate_xsetbv() to call out that the CPU checks
CR4.OSXSAVE before checking for intercepts. AMD'S APM implies that #UD
has priority (says that intercepts are checked before #GP exceptions),
while Intel's SDM says nothing about interception priority. However,
testing on hardware shows that both AMD and Intel CPUs prioritize the #UD
over interception.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
