KVM: allow bit 10 to be cleared in MSR_IA32_MC4_CTL

There is a quirk for AMD K8 CPUs in many Linux kernels (see
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/mce.c:__mcheck_cpu_apply_quirks()) that
clears bit 10 in that MCE related MSR. KVM can only cope with all
zeros or all ones, so it will inject a #GP into the guest, which
will let it panic.
So lets add a quirk to the quirk and ignore this single cleared bit.
This fixes -cpu kvm64 on all machines and -cpu host on K8 machines
with some guest Linux kernels.
