MSR accesses can be one of:
(1) KVM internal access,
(2) userspace access (e.g., via KVM_SET_MSRS ioctl),
(3) guest access.
The ignore_msrs was previously handled by kvm_get_msr_common() and
kvm_set_msr_common(), which is the bottom of the msr access stack. It's
working in most cases, however it could dump unwanted warning messages to dmesg
even if kvm get/set the msrs internally when calling __kvm_set_msr() or
__kvm_get_msr() (e.g. kvm_cpuid()). Ideally we only want to trap cases (2)
or (3), but not (1) above.
To achieve this, move the ignore_msrs handling upper until the callers of
__kvm_get_msr() and __kvm_set_msr(). To identify the "msr missing" event, a
new return value (KVM_MSR_RET_INVALID==2) is used for that.
