It still needs a canonical check.
Note, KVM diverges from the SDM for canonical checks in that it performs
canonical checks even when the virtual CPU doesn't support 64-bit and/or
the host kernel is a 32-bit kernel. This is intentional because the
underlying hardware will still enforce the checks, i.e. KVM needs to make
the physical CPU happy, and the number of people running KVM on hardware
without 64-bit support can probably be counted on one hand.
