KVM: SVM: Only save/restore MSRs when needed
We only have to save/restore MSR_GS_BASE on every VMEXIT. The rest can be
saved/restored when we leave the VCPU. Since we don't emulate the DEBUGCTL
MSRs and the guest cannot write to them, we don't have to worry about
saving/restoring them at all.
This shaves a whopping 40% off raw vmexit costs on AMD.
