Sean Christopherson 023cfa6fc2 KVM: VMX: Use proper accessor to read guest CR4 in handle_desc()

Use kvm_is_cr4_bit_set() to read guest CR4.UMIP when sanity checking that
a descriptor table VM-Exit occurs if and only if guest.CR4.UMIP=1.  UMIP
can't be guest-owned, i.e. using kvm_read_cr4_bits() to decache guest-
owned bits isn't strictly necessary, but eliminating raw reads of
vcpu->arch.cr4 is desirable as it makes it easy to visually audit KVM for
correctness.

Opportunistically add a compile-time assertion that UMIP isn't guest-owned
as letting the guest own UMIP isn't compatible with emulation (or any CR4
bit that is emulated by KVM).

Opportunistically change the WARN_ON() to a ONCE variant.  When the WARN
fires, it fires _a lot_, and spamming the kernel logs ends up doing more
harm than whatever led to KVM's unnecessary emulation.
