When a guest issues a cpuid instruction for Fn0000000D_{x00,x01}, the
hypervisor will be intercepting the CPUID instruction and will need to access
the guest XSS value. For SEV-ES, the XSS value is encrypted and needs to be
included in the GHCB to be visible to the hypervisor.

Just a nit, but I wonder if we should be generic here and just do
has_cpuflag(X86_FEATURE_XSAVES) since that should be set if shadow stack
is enabled, right? And when X86_FEATURE_XSAVES is set, we don't
intercept XSS access (see sev_es_recalc_msr_intercepts()).

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Tom
