Drop the WARN in svm_set_nested_state() on nested_svm_load_cr3() failing
as it is trivially easy to trigger from userspace by modifying CPUID after
loading CR3. E.g. modifying the state restoration selftest like so:
--- tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86/state_test.c
+++ tools/testing/selftests/kvm/x86/state_test.c

Simply delete the WARN instead of trying to prevent userspace from shoving
"illegal" state into CR3. For better or worse, KVM's ABI allows userspace
to set CPUID after SREGS, and vice versa, and KVM is very permissive when
it comes to guest CPUID. I.e. attempting to enforce the virtual CPU model
when setting CPUID could break userspace. Given that the WARN doesn't
provide any meaningful protection for KVM or benefit for userspace, simply
drop it even though the odds of breaking userspace are minuscule.
Opportunistically delete a spurious newline.
