target/i386/kvm: Fix disabling MPX on "-cpu host" with MPX-capable host
Since KVM commit 5f76f6f5ff96 ("KVM: nVMX: Do not expose MPX VMX controls when guest MPX disabled") it is not possible to disable MPX on a "-cpu host" just by adding "-mpx" there if the host CPU does indeed support MPX. QEMU will fail to set MSR_IA32_VMX_TRUE_{EXIT,ENTRY}_CTLS MSRs in this case and so trigger an assertion failure. Instead, besides "-mpx" one has to explicitly add also "-vmx-exit-clear-bndcfgs" and "-vmx-entry-load-bndcfgs" to QEMU command line to make it work, which is a bit convoluted. Make the MPX-related bits in FEAT_VMX_{EXIT,ENTRY}_CTLS dependent on MPX being actually enabled so such workarounds are no longer necessary. Signed-off-by: Maciej S.
