Zide Chen d0df39cbb5 hv: emulate CR0.CD and CR0.NW
This patch makes use of IA32_PAT MSR to emulate cache disabled behaviour

When the guest is requesting to set CR0.CD:
 - Keep guest's CR0.CD and CR0.NW bits unchanged
 - Write IA32_PAT MSR with all-UC entries to change the effective memory
   type for all GPA to UC for the guest VCPU
 - It depends on trapping wrmsr to IA32_PAT to prevent any entry in
   IA32_PAT being changed to non UC type by the guest

When the guest is requesting to clear CR0.CD:
 - restore the content of guest's IA32_PAT MSR
