KVM: x86: Introduce kvm_cpu_caps to replace runtime CPUID masking
Calculate the CPUID masks for KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID at load time using what is effectively a KVM-adjusted copy of boot_cpu_data, or more precisely, the x86_capability array in boot_cpu_data. In terms of KVM support, the vast majority of CPUID feature bits are constant, and *all* feature support is known at KVM load time. Rather than apply boot_cpu_data, which is effectively read-only after init, at runtime, copy it into a KVM-specific array and use *that* to mask CPUID registers. In additional to consolidating the masking, kvm_cpu_caps can be adjusted by SVM/VMX at load time and thus eliminate all feature bit manipulation in ->set_supported_cpuid(). Opportunistically clean up a few warts: - Replace bare "unsigned" with "unsigned int" when a feature flag is captured in a local variable, e.g. f_nx. - Sort the CPUID masks by function, index and register (alphabetically for registers, i.e. EBX comes before ECX/EDX). - Remove the superfluous /* cpuid 7.0.ecx */ comments. No functional change intended.
