To elaborate I guess the reason is because MSR_XFD_ERR should 
always contain host value 0 after preemption is enabled, while 
WRMSR emulation is called with preemption enabled. Then we 
just need wait for the next time the vcpu loop is entered to 
restore the guest value after preemption is disabled. 😊
