Now that handle_fastpath_set_msr_irqoff() acquires kvm->srcu, i.e. allows
dereferencing memslots during WRMSR emulation, drop the requirement that
"next RIP" is valid.  In hindsight, acquiring kvm->srcu would have been a
better fix than avoiding the pastpath, but at the time it was thought that
accessing SRCU-protected data in the fastpath was a one-off edge case.

This reverts commit 5c30e8101e8d5d020b1d7119117889756a6ed713.
