Also known as Paravirtualization level.

This change is based on:

Microsoft Hypervisor CPUID Leaves:

Linux kernel change starts with:
http://fixunix.com/kernel/538707-use-cpuid-communicate-hypervisor.html
Also:
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1205.0/00100.html

VMware documention on CPUIDs (Mechanisms to determine if software is
running in a VMware virtual machine):
http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1009458

QEMU knows this is KVM_CPUID_SIGNATURE (0x40000000).
