Takahiro Itazuri af8e2ccfa6 KVM: x86: Advertise host CPUID 0x80000005 in KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
Advertise CPUID 0x80000005 (L1 cache and TLB info) to userspace so that
VMMs that reflect KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID into KVM_SET_CPUID2 will
enumerate sane cache/TLB information to the guest.

CPUID 0x80000006 (L2 cache and TLB and L3 cache info) has been returned
since commit 43d05de2be ("KVM: pass through CPUID(0x80000006)").
Enumerating both 0x80000005 and 0x80000006 with KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
is better than reporting one or the other, and 0x80000005 could be helpful
for VMM to pass it to KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} for the same reason with
0x80000006.

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.
