An unexpected #GP for that test is very unlikely.  The various sub-tests under
vmx_controls_test() should never fully enter the guest as GUEST.RFLAGS is set to
an invalid value.  And, that specific test does VM-Enter with URG=0 and
CR0.PG/PE=0, which is also invalid.  The unit test uses test_vmx_valid_controls(),
which is a wee bit misleading, as the "early" consistency checks that cause
VM-Fail are expected to succeed, while the VM-Enter is still expected to "fail"
due to a consistency check VM-Exit.
