Two bug fixes: 1) missing entries in the l1d_param array; this can cause a host crash if an access attempts to reach the missing entry. Future-proof the get function against any overflows as well. However, the two entries VMENTER_L1D_FLUSH_EPT_DISABLED and VMENTER_L1D_FLUSH_NOT_REQUIRED must not be accepted by the parse function, so disable them there. 2) invalid values must be rejected even if the CPU does not have the bug, so test for them before checking boot_cpu_has(X86_BUG_L1TF) ... and a small refactoring, since the .cmd field is redundant with the index in the array.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
