    x86/cpuid: Enable MSR_SPEC_CTRL in SVM guests by default
    
    With all other pieces in place, MSR_SPEC_CTRL is fully working for HVM 
guests.
    
    Update the CPUID derivation logic (both PV and HVM to avoid losing subtle
    changes), drop the MSR intercept, and explicitly enable the CPUID bits for 
HVM
    guests.
