    x86/tsx: Introduce tsx= to use MSR_TSX_CTRL when available
    
    To protect against the TSX Async Abort speculative vulnerability, Intel have
    released new microcode for affected parts which introduce the MSR_TSX_CTRL
    control, which allows TSX to be turned off.  This will be architectural on
    future parts.
    
    Introduce tsx= to provide a global on/off for TSX, including its enumeration
    via CPUID.  Provide stub virtualisation of this MSR, as it is not exposed to
    guests at the moment.
    
    VMs may have booted before microcode is loaded, or before hosts have 
rebooted,
    and they still want to migrate freely.  A VM which booted seeing TSX can
    migrate safely to hosts with TSX disabled - TSX will start unconditionally
    aborting, but still behave in a manner compatible with the ABI.
    
    The guest-visible behaviour is equivalent to late loading the microcode and
    setting the RTM_DISABLE bit in the course of live patching.
    
    This is part of XSA-305 / CVE-2019-11135
