ITS_NO is a synthetic bit that indicates to a guest VM that it is
running on hardware that A) is not vulnerable to ITS vulnerability and
B) will not be migrated to a host that is vulnerable to ITS.

Guests will use ITS_NO to opt out of mitigating against ITS.

Intel Sapphire Rapids and higher are all invulnerable to ITS.

Note: for posterity, add MSR_ARCH_CAP_ITS_NO bit definition, such that
future CPU models can add ITS_NO without needing a sub version for
its-no.
