Squish the Intel and AMD emulation of MSR_TSC_AUX together and tie it to the guest CPU model instead of the host CPU behavior. While not strictly necessary to avoid guest breakage, emulating cross-vendor "architecture" will provide consistent behavior for the guest, e.g. WRMSR fault behavior won't change if the vCPU is migrated to a host with divergent behavior. Note, the "new" kvm_is_supported_user_return_msr() checks do not add new functionality on either SVM or VMX. On SVM, the equivalent was "tsc_aux_uret_slot < 0", and on VMX the check was buried in the vmx_find_uret_msr() call at the find_uret_msr label.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
