KVM: SVM: Suppress DEBUGCTL.BTF on AMD
commit d0eac42f upstream. Mark BTF as reserved in DEBUGCTL on AMD, as KVM doesn't actually support BTF, and fully enabling BTF virtualization is non-trivial due to interactions with the emulator, guest_debug, #DB interception, nested SVM, etc. Don't inject #GP if the guest attempts to set BTF, as there's no way to communicate lack of support to the guest, and instead suppress the flag and treat the WRMSR as (partially) unsupported. In short, make KVM behave the same on AMD and Intel (VMX already squashes BTF). Note, due to other bugs in KVM's handling of DEBUGCTL, the only way BTF has "worked" in any capacity is if the guest simultaneously enables LBRs.
