[PATCH 6.2 018/242] KVM: VMX: Make CR0.WP a guest owned bit

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

From: Mathias Krause <minipli@grsecurity.net>

[ Upstream commit fb509f76acc8d42bed11bca308404f81c2be856a ]

Guests like grsecurity that make heavy use of CR0.WP to implement kernel
level W^X will suffer from the implied VMEXITs.

With EPT there is no need to intercept a guest change of CR0.WP, so
simply make it a guest owned bit if we can do so.

This implies that a read of a guest's CR0.WP bit might need a VMREAD.
However, the only potentially affected user seems to be kvm_init_mmu()
which is a heavy operation to begin with. But also most callers already
cache the full value of CR0 anyway, so no additional VMREAD is needed.
The only exception is nested_vmx_load_cr3().

This change is VMX-specific, as SVM has no such fine grained control
register intercept control.
