KVM: x86: Mark CR4.TSD as being possibly owned by the guest
commit 7c83d096 upstream. Mark CR4.TSD as being possibly owned by the guest as that is indeed the case on VMX. Without TSD being tagged as possibly owned by the guest, a targeted read of CR4 to get TSD could observe a stale value. This bug is benign in the current code base as the sole consumer of TSD is the emulator (for RDTSC) and the emulator always "reads" the entirety of CR4 when grabbing bits. Add a build-time assertion in to ensure VMX doesn't hand over more CR4 bits without also updating x86.
