KVM: VMX: Fix comparison of guest efer with stale host value
update_transition_efer() masks out some efer bits when deciding whether
to switch the msr during guest entry; for example, NX is emulated using the
mmu so we don't need to disable it, and LMA/LME are handled by the hardware.
However, with shared msrs, the comparison is made against a stale value;
at the time of the guest switch we may be running with another guest's efer.
Fix by deferring the mask/compare to the actual point of guest entry.
