    x86/svm: Fix asymmetry with AMD DR MASK context switching
    
    The handling of MSR_DR{0..3}_MASK is asymmetric between PV and HVM guests.
    
    HVM guests context switch in based on the guest view of DBEXT, whereas PV
    guest switch in base on the host capability.  Both guest types leave the
    context dirty for the next vCPU.
    
    This leads to the following issue:
    
     * PV or HVM vCPU has debugging active (%dr7 + mask)
     * Switch out deactivates %dr7 but leaves other state stale in hardware
     * HVM vCPU with debugging activate but can't see DBEXT is switched in
     * Switch in loads %dr7 but leaves the mask MSRs alone
    
    Now, the HVM vCPU is operating in the context of the prior vCPU's mask MSR,
    and furthermore in a case where it genuinely expects there to be no masking
    MSRs.
    
    As a stopgap, adjust the HVM path to switch in/out the masks based on host
    capabilities rather than guest visibility (i.e. like the PV path).  
Adjustment
    of the of the intercepts still needs to be dependent on the guest visibility
    of DBEXT.
    
    This is part of XSA-444 / CVE-2023-34327
