Jim found several bugs that allowed L2 to read L0's x2APIC MSRs and write to
TPR, EOI, and SELF_IPI, in the worst case.

The fix is split into two patches as possible causes were introduced by
two different commits.

I have not Cc'd stable as the patches are quite long and nVMX is not
considered to be ready for production, yet.
