1de7b4b805 various: general adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.
Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

No functional change intended.

c3498942a5 Restructure the MSR handling so it is entirely handled by processor-specific
code. There are only a handful of MSRs common between the two so there isn't
too much duplicate functionality.

The VT-x code has the following types of MSRs:

- MSRs that are unconditionally saved/restored on every guest/host context
  switch (e.g., MSR_GSBASE).

- MSRs that are restored to guest values on entry to vmx_run() and saved
  before returning. This is an optimization for MSRs that are not used in
  host kernel context (e.g., MSR_KGSBASE).

- MSRs that are emulated and every access by the guest causes a trap into
  the hypervisor (e.g., MSR_IA32_MISC_ENABLE).

851d84f1b5 Add an option to ignore accesses by the guest to unimplemented MSRs.
Also, ignore a couple of SandyBridge uncore PMC MSRs that Centos 6.4 writes
to during boot.
