KVM: SVM: enable LBR virtualization

This patch implements the Last Branch Record Virtualization (LBRV) feature of
the AMD Barcelona and Phenom processors into the kvm-amd module. It will only
be enabled if the guest enables last branch recording in the DEBUG_CTL MSR. So
there is no increased world switch overhead when the guest doesn't use these
MSRs.
