[PATCH 04/11] KVM: selftests: Rework OSXSAVE CR4=>CPUID test to play nice with AVX insns

From: Sean Christopherson
Date: Thu Oct 03 2024 - 19:45:12 EST


Rework the CR4/CPUID sync test to clear CR4.OSXSAVE, do CPUID, and restore
CR4.OSXSAVE in assembly, so that there is zero chance of AVX instructions
being executed while CR4.OSXSAVE is disabled. This will allow enabling
CR4.OSXSAVE by default for selftests vCPUs as a general means of playing
nice with AVX instructions.
