Add safe (exception handled) variants of rdmsr_on_cpu and wrmsr_on_cpu.
You should use these when the target MSR may not actually exist, as
doing so could trigger an exception which the regular functions do not
handle. The safe variants are slower, though.

The upcoming coretemp hardware monitoring driver will need this.
