[PATCH 3.12 012/133] x86, kvm: cache the base of the KVM cpuid leaves

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Feb 04 2014 - 17:29:52 EST


3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 1c300a40772dae829b91dad634999a6a522c0829 upstream.

It is unnecessary to go through hypervisor_cpuid_base every time
a leaf is found (which will be every time a feature is requested
after the next patch).
