KVM: SVM: Enable Virtual VMLOAD VMSAVE feature
Enable the Virtual VMLOAD VMSAVE feature. This is done by setting bit 1
at position B8h in the vmcb.
The processor must have nested paging enabled, be in 64-bit mode and
have support for the Virtual VMLOAD VMSAVE feature for the bit to be set
in the vmcb.
