Drop x86.c's local pre-computed cr4_reserved bits and instead fold KVM's
reserved bits into the guest's reserved bits.  This fixes a bug where VMX's
set_cr4_guest_host_mask() fails to account for KVM-reserved bits when
deciding which bits can be passed through to the guest.  In most cases,
letting the guest directly write reserved CR4 bits is ok, i.e. attempting
to set the bit(s) will still #GP, but not if a feature is available in
hardware but explicitly disabled by the host, e.g. if FSGSBASE support is
disabled via "nofsgsbase".

Note, the extra overhead of computing host reserved bits every time
userspace sets guest CPUID is negligible.  The feature bits that are
queried are packed nicely into a handful of words, and so checking and
setting each reserved bit costs in the neighborhood of ~5 cycles, i.e. the
total cost will be in the noise even if the number of checked CR4 bits
doubles over the next few years.  In other words, x86 will run out of CR4
bits long before the overhead becomes problematic.

Note #2, __cr4_reserved_bits() starts from CR4_RESERVED_BITS, which is
why the existing __kvm_cpu_cap_has() processing doesn't explicitly OR in
CR4_RESERVED_BITS (and why the new code doesn't do so either).
