Vitaly Kuznetsov 8f014550df KVM: x86: hyper-v: Make Hyper-V emulation enablement conditional
Hyper-V emulation is enabled in KVM unconditionally. This is bad at least
from security standpoint as it is an extra attack surface. Ideally, there
should be a per-VM capability explicitly enabled by VMM but currently it
is not the case and we can't mandate one without breaking backwards
compatibility. We can, however, check guest visible CPUIDs and only enable
Hyper-V emulation when "Hv#1" interface was exposed in
HYPERV_CPUID_INTERFACE.

Note, VMMs are free to act in any sequence they like, e.g. they can try
to set MSRs first and CPUIDs later so we still need to allow the host
to read/write Hyper-V specific MSRs unconditionally.

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.
