    KVM: x86: Forbid VMM to set SYNIC/STIMER MSRs when SynIC wasn't activated · b1e34d32
    Vitaly Kuznetsov authored
    Setting non-zero values to SYNIC/STIMER MSRs activates certain features,
    this should not happen when KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC{,2} was not activated.
    
    Note, it would've been better to forbid writing anything to SYNIC/STIMER
    MSRs, including zeroes, however, at least QEMU tries clearing
    HV_X64_MSR_STIMER0_CONFIG without SynIC. HV_X64_MSR_EOM MSR is somewhat
    'special' as writing zero there triggers an action, this also should not
    happen when SynIC wasn't activated.
