Sean Christopherson cfc481810c KVM: x86: Calculate the supported xcr0 mask at load time
Add a new global variable, supported_xcr0, to track which xcr0 bits can
be exposed to the guest instead of calculating the mask on every call.
The supported bits are constant for a given instance of KVM.

This paves the way toward eliminating the ->mpx_supported() call in
kvm_mpx_supported(), e.g. eliminates multiple retpolines in VMX's nested
VM-Enter path, and eventually toward eliminating ->mpx_supported()
altogether.

No functional change intended.

README

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.
