    x86/pv: Avoid leaking other guests' MSR_TSC_AUX values into PV context
    
    If the CPU pipeline supports RDTSCP or RDPID, a guest can observe the value 
in
    MSR_TSC_AUX, irrespective of whether the relevant CPUID features are
    advertised/hidden.
    
    At the moment, paravirt_ctxt_switch_to() only writes to MSR_TSC_AUX if
    TSC_MODE_PVRDTSCP mode is enabled, but this is not the default mode.
    Therefore, default PV guests can read the value from a previously scheduled
    HVM vcpu, or TSC_MODE_PVRDTSCP-enabled PV guest.
    
    Alter the PV path to always write to MSR_TSC_AUX, using 0 in the common 
case.
    
    To amortise overhead cost, introduce wrmsr_tsc_aux() which performs a lazy
    update of the MSR, and use this function consistently across the codebase.
