Subject: [PATCH 10/16] x86/cpu: Detect VMX features on Intel, Centaur and Zhaoxin CPUs

Add an entry in struct cpuinfo_x86 to track VMX capabilities and fill
the capabilities during IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL MSR initialization.

Make the VMX capabilities dependent on X86_INTEL_FEATURE_CONTROL and
X86_FEATURE_NAMES so as to avoid unnecessary overhead on CPUs that can't
possibly support VMX, or when /proc/cpuinfo is not available.

For QEMU, we're defining a feature as supported if a feature can be
turned both on and off. Since msr_low and msr_high can be defined
respectively as must-be-one and can-be-one, the features become
"msr_high & ~msr_low".

Also, shouldn't this use the "true" feature availability MSRs if available?

That makes sense for Qemu, but I don't think it's appropriate for this
type of reporting. E.g. if EPT and Unrestricted Guest are must-be-one on
a hypothetical (virtual) CPU, it'd be odd to not list them as a supported
feature.

For actual hardware (well, Intel hardware), as proposed it's a moot point.
The only features that are must-be-one (even without "true" MSRs) and are
documented in the SDM are CR3_LOAD_EXITING, CR3_STORE_EXITING,
SAVE_DEBUG_CONTROLS, and LOAD_DEBUG_CONTROLS, none of which are reported
in /proc/cpuinfo.

> Also, shouldn't this use the "true" feature availability MSRs if available?

Only if incorporating the "& ~msr_low" can-be-one logic. If a feature is
considered supported if it must-be-one or can-be-one then the true MSR and
vanilla MSR will yield the same feature set.

Ok, that all makes sense.
