Inject a #GP on a WRMSR(ICR) that attempts to set any reserved bits that
are must-be-zero on both Intel and AMD, i.e. any reserved bits other than
the BUSY bit, which Intel ignores and basically says is undefined.
KVM's xapic_state_test selftest has been fudging the bug since commit
4b88b1a518 ("KVM: selftests: Enhance handling WRMSR ICR register in
x2APIC mode"), which essentially removed the testcase instead of fixing
the bug.
WARN if the nodecode path triggers a #GP, as the CPU is supposed to check
reserved bits for ICR when it's partially virtualized.

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 reStructuredText 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.
