Another week another RFC. KVM patches are still in flight, so RFC again.

Changes since RFCv2:
- Rebase.
- Split "i386: drop FEAT_HYPERV feature leaves" into several patches and
  re-shuffle patches to minimize the code churn and make it easier to
  review. [Eduardo]
- Added "i386: provide simple 'hyperv=on' option to x86 machine types" on
  top.

This pairs with
https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/20200929150944.1235688-1-vkuznets@redhat.com/T/#t

Upper layer tools like libvirt want to figure out which Hyper-V features are
supported by the underlying stack (QEMU/KVM) but currently they are unable to
do so. We have a nice 'hv_passthrough' CPU flag supported by QEMU but it has
no effect on e.g. QMP's 

query-cpu-model-expansion type=full model={"name":"host","props":{"hv-passthrough":true}}

command as we parse Hyper-V features after creating KVM vCPUs and not at
feature expansion time. To support the use-case we first need to make 
KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_HV_CPUID ioctl a system-wide ioctl as the existing
vCPU version can't be used that early. This is what KVM part does. With
that done, we can make early Hyper-V feature expansion (this series).

In addition, add a simple 'hyperv=on' option to x86 machine types which
enables (and requires from KVM) all currently supported Hyper-V enlightenments.
Unlike 'hv_passthrough' mode, this is going to be migratable.

Vitaly Kuznetsov (23):
  WIP: update linux/headers
  i386: fill in FEAT_HYPERV_EDX from edx instead of eax
  i386: drop x86_cpu_get_supported_feature_word() forward declaration
  i386: move hyperv_vendor_id initialization to x86_cpu_realizefn()
  i386: move hyperv_interface_id initialization to x86_cpu_realizefn()
  i386: move hyperv_version_id initialization to x86_cpu_realizefn()
  i386: move hyperv_limits initialization to x86_cpu_realizefn()
  i386: keep hyperv_vendor string up-to-date
  i386: invert hyperv_spinlock_attempts setting logic with
    hv_passthrough
  i386: always fill Hyper-V CPUID feature leaves from X86CPU data
  i386: stop using env->features[] for filling Hyper-V CPUIDs
  i386: introduce hyperv_feature_supported()

  i386: split hyperv_handle_properties() into
    hyperv_expand_features()/hyperv_fill_cpuids()
  i386: move eVMCS enablement to hyperv_init_vcpu()
  i386: switch hyperv_expand_features() to using error_setg()
  i386: adjust the expected KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_HV_CPUID array size
  i386: prefer system KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_HV_CPUID ioctl over vCPU's one
  i386: use global kvm_state in hyperv_enabled() check
  i386: expand Hyper-V features during CPU feature expansion time
  i386: provide simple 'hyperv=on' option to x86 machine types
