OS usually expects BIOS to set certain bits in MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL
for some features (e.g. VMX and LMCE). QEMU provides a fw_cfg file
"etc/msr_feature_control" to advise bits that should be set in
MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL. If this file exists, SeaBIOS will set the
advised bits in that MSR.

QEMU patch added fw_cfg file etc/msr_feature_control can be found
at [1]. Note I mistakenly used u32 as the type of file content in
that patch, which should be u64 and will be fixed.

This must run before smp_setup(), because it is smp_setup() that calls
handle_smp() on the APs.

You can use wrmsr_smp and avoid the change below to handle_smp().  It
also removes the need for the feature_control_bits global variable.

Thanks,

I'll move it before smp_setup().

Good idea. I think I should also rename smp_mtrr and smp_mtrr_count to
something like smp_msr and smp_msr_count, because they will not be used
only for MTRR.
