Michael S. Tsirkin 57c22e5f35 KVM: fix cpuid eax for KVM leaf
cpuid eax should return the max leaf so that
guests can find out the valid range.
This matches Xen et al.
Update documentation to match.

Tested with -cpu host.

Boris Ostrovsky 2b036c6b86 KVM: SVM: Add support for AMD's OSVW feature in guests
In some cases guests should not provide workarounds for errata even when the
physical processor is affected. For example, because of erratum 400 on family
10h processors a Linux guest will read an MSR (resulting in VMEXIT) before
going to idle in order to avoid getting stuck in a non-C0 state. This is not
necessary: HLT and IO instructions are intercepted and therefore there is no
reason for erratum 400 workaround in the guest.

This patch allows us to present a guest with certain errata as fixed,
regardless of the state of actual hardware.

Sasha Levin 831bf664e9 KVM: Refactor and simplify kvm_dev_ioctl_get_supported_cpuid
This patch cleans and simplifies kvm_dev_ioctl_get_supported_cpuid by using a table
instead of duplicating code as Avi suggested.

This patch also fixes a bug where kvm_dev_ioctl_get_supported_cpuid would return
-E2BIG when amount of entries passed was just right.

Liu, Jinsong fb215366b3 KVM: expose latest Intel cpu new features (BMI1/BMI2/FMA/AVX2) to guest
Intel latest cpu add 6 new features, refer http://software.intel.com/file/36945
The new feature cpuid listed as below:

1. FMA		CPUID.EAX=01H:ECX.FMA[bit 12]
2. MOVBE	CPUID.EAX=01H:ECX.MOVBE[bit 22]
3. BMI1		CPUID.EAX=07H,ECX=0H:EBX.BMI1[bit 3]
4. AVX2		CPUID.EAX=07H,ECX=0H:EBX.AVX2[bit 5]
5. BMI2		CPUID.EAX=07H,ECX=0H:EBX.BMI2[bit 8]
6. LZCNT	CPUID.EAX=80000001H:ECX.LZCNT[bit 5]

This patch expose these features to guest.
Among them, FMA/MOVBE/LZCNT has already been defined, MOVBE/LZCNT has
already been exposed.

This patch defines BMI1/AVX2/BMI2, and exposes FMA/BMI1/AVX2/BMI2 to guest.
