Subject: [PATCH] KVM: x86: work around QEMU issue with synthetic CPUID leaves
Date:   Fri, 29 Apr 2022 15:25:53 -0400

Synthesizing AMD leaves up to 0x80000021 caused problems with QEMU,
which assumes the *host* CPUID[0x80000000].EAX is higher or equal
to what KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID reports.

This causes QEMU to issue bogus host CPUIDs when preparing the input
to KVM_SET_CPUID2.  It can even get into an infinite loop, which is
only terminated by an abort():

   cpuid_data is full, no space for cpuid(eax:0x8000001d,ecx:0x3e)

To work around this, only synthesize those leaves if 0x8000001d exists
on the host.  The synthetic 0x80000021 leaf is mostly useful on Zen2,
which satisfies the condition.

Fixes: f144c49e8c39 ("KVM: x86: synthesize CPUID leaf 0x80000021h if useful")
