x86/vmx: Correct the long mode check in vmx_cpuid_intercept()

%cs.L may be set in a legacy mode segment, or clear in a compatibility mode
segment; it is not the correct way to check for long mode being active.

Both of these situations result in incorrect visibility of the SYSCALL feature
in CPUID, and by extension, incorrect behaviour in hvm_efer_valid().
