Paolo Bonzini 139f7425fd kvm: x86: Use KVM CPU capabilities to determine CR4 reserved bits
Using CPUID data can be useful for the processor compatibility
check, but that's it.  Using it to compute guest-reserved bits
can have both false positives (such as LA57 and UMIP which we
are already handling) and false negatives: in particular, with
this patch we don't allow anymore a KVM guest to set CR4.PKE
when CR4.PKE is clear on the host.

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.
