[PATCH] KVM: SVM: Fix redundant updates of LBR MSR intercepts

[Yosry Ahmed <yosry.ahmed@linux.dev>]

svm_update_lbrv() always updates LBR MSRs intercepts, even when they are
already set correctly. This results in force_msr_bitmap_recalc always
being set to true on every nested transition, essentially undoing the
hyperv optimization in nested_svm_merge_msrpm().

Fix it by keeping track of whether LBR MSRs are intercepted or not and
only doing the update if needed, similar to x2avic_msrs_intercepted.

Avoid using svm_test_msr_bitmap_*() to check the status of the
intercepts, as an arbitrary MSR will need to be chosen as a
representative of all LBR MSRs, and this could theoretically break if
some of the MSRs intercepts are handled differently from the rest.

Also, using svm_test_msr_bitmap_*() makes backports difficult as it was
only recently introduced with no direct alternatives in older kernels.
