[ Upstream commit 0204750bd4c6ccc2fb7417618477f10373b33f56 ]
KVM should not claim to virtualize unknown IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES
bits. When kvm_get_arch_capabilities() was originally written, there
were only a few bits defined in this MSR, and KVM could virtualize all
of them. However, over the years, several bits have been defined that
KVM cannot just blindly pass through to the guest without additional
work (such as virtualizing an MSR promised by the
IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITES feature bit).
Define a mask of supported IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES bits, and mask off
any other bits that are set in the hardware MSR.

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.
