KVM: VMX: Give the guest ownership of cr0.ts when the fpu is active
If the guest fpu is loaded, there is nothing interesing about cr0.ts; let the guest play with it as it will. This makes context switches between fpu intensive guest processes faster, as we won't trap the clts and cr0 write instructions. [marcelo: fix cr0 read shadow update on fpu deactivation; kills F8 install] Signed-off-by: Avi Kivity <avi@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Marcelo Tosatti <mtosatti@redhat.com>
