Revert "KVM: SVM: Skip WRMSR fastpath on VM-Exit if next RIP isn't valid"
Now that handle_fastpath_set_msr_irqoff() acquires kvm->srcu, i.e. allows dereferencing memslots during WRMSR emulation, drop the requirement that "next RIP" is valid. In hindsight, acquiring kvm->srcu would have been a better fix than avoiding the pastpath, but at the time it was thought that accessing SRCU-protected data in the fastpath was a one-off edge case. This reverts commit 5c30e8101e8d5d020b1d7119117889756a6ed713.
