Jim Mattson c550505b57 kvm: x86: Pass through AMD_STIBP_ALWAYS_ON in GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
This bit is purely advisory. Passing it through to the guest indicates
that the virtual processor, like the physical processor, prefers that
STIBP is only set once during boot and not changed.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
