Remove the restriction that prevents VMX from exposing INVPCID to the guest without PCID also being exposed to the guest. The justification of the restriction is that INVPCID will #UD if it's disabled in the VMCS. While that is a true statement, it's also true that RDTSCP will #UD if it's disabled in the VMCS. Neither of those things has any dependency whatsoever on the guest being able to set CR4.PCIDE=1, which is what is effectively allowed by exposing PCID to the guest. Removing the bogus restriction aligns VMX with SVM, and also allows for an interesting configuration. INVPCID is that fastest way to do a global TLB flush, e.g. see native_flush_tlb_global(). Allowing INVPCID without PCID would let a guest use the expedited flush while also limiting the number of ASIDs consumed by the guest.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
