Regardless of the 'msr' argument passed to the VMX version of msr_write_intercepted(), the function always checks to see if a specific MSR (IA32_SPEC_CTRL) is intercepted for write. This behavior seems unintentional and unexpected. Modify the function so that it checks to see if the provided 'msr' index is intercepted for write.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
