KVM: SVM: Enable Virtual GIF feature
Enable the Virtual GIF feature. This is done by setting bit 25 at position 60h in the vmcb. With this feature enabled, the processor uses bit 9 at position 60h as the virtual GIF when executing STGI/CLGI instructions. Since the execution of STGI by the L1 hypervisor does not cause a return to the outermost (L0) hypervisor, the enable_irq_window and enable_nmi_window are modified. The IRQ window will be opened even if GIF is not set, under the assumption that on resuming the L1 hypervisor the IRQ will be held pending until the processor executes the STGI instruction. For the NMI window, the STGI intercept is set. This will assist in opening the window only when GIF=1.
