Drop the explicit check on the extended CPUID level in cpu_has_svm(), the
kernel's cached CPUID info will leave the entire SVM leaf unset if said
leaf is not supported by hardware. Prior to using cached information,
the check was needed to avoid false positives due to Intel's rather crazy
CPUID behavior of returning the values of the maximum supported leaf if
the specified leaf is unsupported.

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.
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.
