Sean Christopherson 3763bf5802 x86/cpufeatures: Redefine synthetic virtual NMI bit as AMD's "real" vNMI
The existing X86_FEATURE_VNMI is a synthetic feature flag that exists
purely to maintain /proc/cpuinfo's ABI, the "real" Intel vNMI feature flag
is tracked as VMX_FEATURE_VIRTUAL_NMIS, as the feature is enumerated
through VMX MSRs, not CPUID.

AMD is also gaining virtual NMI support, but in true VMX vs. SVM form,
enumerates support through CPUID, i.e. wants to add real feature flag for
vNMI.

Redefine the syntheic X86_FEATURE_VNMI to AMD's real CPUID bit to avoid
having both X86_FEATURE_VNMI and e.g. X86_FEATURE_AMD_VNMI.

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.
