[RFC PATCH 6/9] kvm/x86: Add ARCH_CAP_VIRTUAL_ENUM for guest MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES

From: Zhang Chen
Date: Sat Dec 10 2022 - 11:19:39 EST


Add the 63 bit in MSR_IA32_ARCH_CAPABILITIES for enable the virtual MSRs.
Virtual MSRs can allow guests to notify VMM whether or not
they are using specific software mitigation, allowing a VMM
to enable there hardware control only where necessary.
As Intel spec defination, expose virtual MSR for guest.
Make guest have ability to check virtual MSR 0x50000000.
