KVM: VMX: Optimize vmx_set_rflags() for unrestricted guest

Rework vmx_set_rflags() to avoid the extra code need to handle emulation
of real mode and invalid state when unrestricted guest is disabled.  The
primary reason for doing so is to avoid the call to vmx_get_rflags(),
which will incur a VMREAD when RFLAGS is not already available.  When
running nested VMs, the majority of calls to vmx_set_rflags() will occur
without an associated vmx_get_rflags(), i.e. when stuffing GUEST_RFLAGS
during transitions between vmcs01 and vmcs02.

Note, vmx_get_rflags() guarantees RFLAGS is marked available.
