KVM: VMX: Don't modify guest XFD_ERR if CR0.TS=1
Don't update the guest's XFD_ERR MSR if CR0.TS is set; per the SDM, XFD_ERR is not modified if CR0.TS=1. Although it's not explicitly stated in the SDM, conceptually it makes sense the CR0.TS check would be done prior to the XFD_ERR check, e.g. CR0.TS=1 blocks all SIMD state, whereas XFD blocks only XTILE state. Device-not-available exceptions that are not due to XFD - those resulting from setting CR0.TS to 1 - do not modify the IA32_XFD_ERR MSR. Opportunistically update the comment to call out that XFD_ERR is updated before the VM-Exit check occurs. Nothing in the SDM explicitly calls out this behavior, but logically it must be the behavior, otherwise reading XFD_ERR in handle_nm_fault_irqoff() would return stale data, i.e. the to-be-delivered XFD_ERR value would need to be saved in EXIT_QUALIFICATION, a la DR6 for #DB and CR2 for #PF, so that software could capture the guest value.
