[PATCHv2] kvm: fix cpuid eax

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

cpuid eax should return the max leaf so that
guests can find out the valid range.
This matches Xen et al.
Update documentation to match.

Tested with -cpu host.

 KVM cpuid functions are:
 
 function: KVM_CPUID_SIGNATURE (0x40000000)
-returns : eax = 0,
+returns : eax = 0x40000001,
           ebx = 0x4b4d564b,
           ecx = 0x564b4d56,
           edx = 0x4d.
 Note that this value in ebx, ecx and edx corresponds to the string "KVMKVMKVM".
+The value in eax corresponds to the maximum cpuid function present in this leaf,
+and will be updated if more functions are added in the future.
+Note also that old hosts set eax value to 0x0. This should
+be interpreted as if the value was 0x40000001.
 This function queries the presence of KVM cpuid leafs.
