The APM lists the DbgCtlMsr field as being tracked by the VMCB_LBR clean
bit. Always clear the bit when MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR is updated.
The history is complicated, it was correctly cleared for L1 before
commit
1d5a1b5860ed ("KVM: x86: nSVM: correctly virtualize LBR msrs when
L2 is running"). At that point svm_set_msr() started to rely on
svm_update_lbrv() to clear the bit, but when nested virtualization
is enabled the latter does not always clear it even if MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR
changed. Go back to clearing it directly in svm_set_msr().
Fixes: 1d5a1b5860ed ("KVM: x86: nSVM: correctly virtualize LBR msrs when L2 is running")
