Commit 916e3e5f26ab ("KVM: SVM: Do not use user return MSR support for
virtualized TSC_AUX") introduced a local variable used for the rdmsr()
function for the high 32-bits of the MSR value. This variable is not used
after being set and triggers a warning or error, when treating warnings
as errors, when the unused-but-set-variable flag is set. Mark this
variable as __maybe_unused to fix this.

Argh, the abomination that is rdmsrl() strikes again :-/  We really should be able
to do:

		hostsa->tsc_aux = (u32)rdmsrl(MSR_TSC_AUX);

I don't see a better quick fix than __maybe_unused though.
