KVM/x86: Remove indirect MSR op calls from SPEC_CTRL
commit ecb586bd29c99fb4de599dec388658e74388daad upstream.
Having a paravirt indirect call in the IBRS restore path is not a
good idea, since we are trying to protect from speculative execution
of bogus indirect branch targets. It is also slower, so use
native_wrmsrl() on the vmentry path too.
