KVM: VMX: Only save/restore MSR_K6_STAR if necessary
Intel hosts only support syscall/sysret in long more (and only if efer.sce is enabled), so only reload the related MSR_K6_STAR if the guest will actually be able to use it. This reduces vmexit cost by about 500 cycles (6400 -> 5870) on my setup. Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>
