commit a484755ab2526ebdbe042397cdd6e427eb4b1a68 upstream.
Revert KVM's made-up consistency check on SVM's TLB control. The APM says that unsupported encodings are reserved, but the APM doesn't state that VMRUN checks for a supported encoding. Unless something is called out in "Canonicalization and Consistency Checks" or listed as MBZ (Must Be Zero), AMD behavior is typically to let software shoot itself in the foot.
This reverts commit 174a921b6975ef959dd82ee9e8844067a62e3ec1.
