It's not just masking leaf 7. It's enabling it - before we passed 0 every time.

So we need to give it the same treatment as other leaves. We expose a bit only if we explicitly support it in kvm, and it is enabled in the host. See kvm_supported_word[01456] features for examples.

btw, we could also expose fsgsbase and rep/movsb (but in a separate patch, please).
