kvm: x86: Fix vmwrite to SECONDARY_VM_EXEC_CONTROL

Browse source

commit 45bdbcfdf2 upstream.

vmx_cpuid_tries to update SECONDARY_VM_EXEC_CONTROL in the VMCS, but
it will cause a vmwrite error on older CPUs because the code does not
check for the presence of CPU_BASED_ACTIVATE_SECONDARY_CONTROLS.

This will get rid of the following trace on e.g. Core2 6600:

vmwrite error: reg 401e value 10 (err 12)
Call Trace:
