Per the AMD documentation, attempts to use INVPCID at CPL>0 will
result in a #GP, regardless of the intercept bit. If the guest CPUID
doesn't enumerate the feature, shouldn't the instruction raise #UD
regardless of CPL? This seems to imply that we should intercept #GP
and decode the instruction to see if we should synthesize #UD instead.

What if INVPCID is enabled in the guest CPUID later? Shouldn't we then
clear this intercept bit?
