    x86/vmx: Don't use hvm_inject_hw_exception() in long_mode_do_msr_write()
    
    Since c/s 49de10f3c1718 "x86/hvm: Don't raise #GP behind the emulators back
    for MSR accesses", returning X86EMUL_EXCEPTION has pushed the exception
    generation to the top of the call tree.
    
    Using hvm_inject_hw_exception() and returning X86EMUL_EXCEPTION causes a
    double #GP injection, which combines to #DF.
