Re: [PATCH v3] KVM: VMX: Fix enable VPID even if INVVPID is not exposed in vmx capability

[Jim Mattson]

Is cpu_has_vmx_invvpid() sufficient? This indicates support for the
INVVPID instruction, but not necessarily any of the desired INVVPID
types. KVM's vpid_sync_context() assumes that at least one of
{VMX_VPID_EXTENT_SINGLE_CONTEXT, VMX_VPID_EXTENT_ALL_CONTEXT} is
supported.
