Subject: KVM: SVM: Do not report xsave in supported cpuid
From: Joerg Roedel <[email protected]>
commit 24d1b15f72abe3465e871d11cfc9dc34d1aab8b2 upstream.
To support xsave properly for the guest the SVM module need
software support for it. As long as this is not present do
not report the xsave as supported feature in cpuid.
As a side-effect this patch moves the bit() helper function
into the x86.h file so that it can be used in svm.c too.
