There is a flaw in the Hyper-V SynIC implementation in KVM: when message page or event flags page is enabled by setting the corresponding msr, KVM zeroes it out. This is problematic because on migration the corresponding MSRs are loaded on the destination, so the content of those pages is lost. This went unnoticed so far because the only user of those pages was in-KVM hyperv synic timers, which could continue working despite that zeroing. Newer QEMU uses those pages for Hyper-V VMBus implementation, and zeroing them breaks the migration. Besides, in newer QEMU the content of those pages is fully managed by QEMU, so zeroing them is undesirable even when writing the MSRs from the guest side. To support this new scheme, introduce a new capability, KVM_CAP_HYPERV_SYNIC2, which, when enabled, makes sure that the synic pages aren't zeroed out in KVM.
