[PATCH v2 0/3] Add CpuidUserDis support



v2:
 * Style changes
 * Remove v1/patch3: HVM not to be addressed by this series
 * Adds one patch between v1/patch1 and v1/patch2 with the vendor-specific
   refactor of probe_cpuid_faulting()

Nowadays AMD supports trapping the CPUID instruction from ring>0 to ring0,
(CpuidUserDis) akin to Intel's "CPUID faulting". There is a difference in
that the toggle bit is in a different MSR and the support bit is in CPUID
itself rather than yet another MSR. This patch enables AMD hosts to use it
when supported in order to provide correct CPUID contents to PV guests.

Patch 1 merely adds definitions to various places in CPUID and MSR

Patch 2 moves vendor-specific code on probe_cpuid_faulting() to amd.c/intel.c

Patch 3 adds support for CpuidUserDis, hooking it in the probing path and
the context switching path.

Alejandro Vallejo (3):
  x86: Add AMD's CpuidUserDis bit definitions
  x86: Refactor conditional guard in probe_cpuid_faulting()
  x86: Add support for CpuidUserDis
