Use the recently introduced KVM CPU caps to propagate SVM-only (kernel)
settings to supported CPUID flags.
Note, there are a few subtleties:
- Setting a flag based on a *different* feature is effectively
emulation, and must be done at runtime via ->set_supported_cpuid().
- CPUID 0x8000000A.EDX is a feature leaf that was previously not
adjusted by kvm_cpu_cap_mask() because all features are hidden by
default.
Opportunistically add a technically unnecessary break and fix an

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.

ICR and TSCDEADLINE MSRs write cause the main MSRs write vmexits in our
product observation, multicast IPIs are not as common as unicast IPI like
RESCHEDULE_VECTOR and CALL_FUNCTION_SINGLE_VECTOR etc.
This patch introduce a mechanism to handle certain performance-critical
WRMSRs in a very early stage of KVM VMExit handler.
This mechanism is specifically used for accelerating writes to x2APIC ICR
that attempt to send a virtual IPI with physical destination-mode, fixed
delivery-mode and single target. Which was found as one of the main causes
of VMExits for Linux workloads.
The reason this mechanism significantly reduce the latency of such virtual
IPIs is by sending the physical IPI to the target vCPU in a very early stage
of KVM VMExit handler, before host interrupts are enabled and before expensive
operations such as reacquiring KVM’s SRCU lock.
Latency is reduced even more when KVM is able to use APICv posted-interrupt
mechanism (which allows to deliver the virtual IPI directly to target vCPU
without the need to kick it to host).
Testing on Xeon Skylake server:
The virtual IPI latency from sender send to receiver receive reduces
more than 200+ cpu cycles.
