Disable pass-through of the FS and GS base MSRs for 32-bit KVM. Intel's
SDM unequivocally states that the MSRs exist if and only if the CPU
supports x86-64. FS_BASE and GS_BASE are mostly a non-issue; a clever
guest could opportunistically use the MSRs without issue. KERNEL_GS_BASE
is a bigger problem, as a clever guest would subtly be broken if it were
migrated, as KVM disallows software access to the MSRs, and unlike the
direct variants, KERNEL_GS_BASE needs to be explicitly migrated as it's
not captured in the VMCS.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
