    x86/cpu-policy: Fix visibility of HTT/CMP_LEGACY in max policies
    
    The block in recalculate_cpuid_policy() predates the proper split between
    default and max policies, and was a "slightly max for a toolstack which 
knows
    about it" capability.  It didn't get transformed properly in Xen 4.14.
    
    Because Xen will accept a VM with HTT/CMP_LEGACY seen, they should be 
visible
    in the max polices.  Keep the default policy matching host settings.
    
    This manifested as an incorrectly-rejected migration across XenServer's Xen
    4.13 -> 4.17 upgrade, as Xapi is slowly growing the logic to check a VM
    against the target max policy.
