With the SEV-ES hypervisor support now in the tree, this will need to add
support in sev_es_sync_vmsa() to put the initial svm->spec_ctrl value in
the SEV-ES VMSA.

I thought Jim's feedback was to keep the support as originally coded with
respect to the MSR intercept and only update the svm_vcpu_run() to either
read/write the MSR or read/write the save area value based on the feature.
So I think this can be removed.

This is unneeded since svm->vmcb->save.spec_ctrl is saved in
svm->spec_ctrl on VMEXIT.

And this is unneeded since svm->vmcb->save.spec_ctrl is set to
svm->spec_ctrl before VMRUN.

If I understood Jim's feedback correctly, this will change to something like:

if (unlikely(!msr_write_intercepted(vcpu, MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL))) {
if (static_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_V_SPEC_CTRL))
svm->spec_ctrl = svm->vmcb->save.spec_ctrl;
else
svm->spec_ctrl = native_read_msr(MSR_IA32_SPEC_CTRL);
}

Thanks,
Tom
