[PATCH v2 02/54] KVM: x86: Snapshot if a vCPU's vendor model is AMD vs. Intel compatible

From: Sean Christopherson <seanjc@google.com>

Add kvm_vcpu_arch.is_amd_compatible to cache if a vCPU's vendor model is
compatible with AMD, i.e. if the vCPU vendor is AMD or Hygon, along with
helpers to check if a vCPU is compatible AMD vs. Intel. To handle Intel
vs. AMD behavior related to masking the LVTPC entry, KVM will need to
check for vendor compatibility on every PMI injection, i.e. querying for
AMD will soon be a moderately hot path.

Note! This subtly (or maybe not-so-subtly) makes "Intel compatible" KVM's
default behavior, both if userspace omits (or never sets) CPUID 0x0 and if
userspace sets a completely unknown vendor. One could argue that KVM
should treat such vCPUs as not being compatible with Intel *or* AMD, but
that would add useless complexity to KVM.

KVM needs to do *something* in the face of vendor specific behavior, and
so unless KVM conjured up a magic third option, choosing to treat unknown
vendors as neither Intel nor AMD means that checks on AMD compatibility
would yield Intel behavior, and checks for Intel compatibility would yield
AMD behavior. And that's far worse as it would effectively yield random
behavior depending on whether KVM checked for AMD vs. Intel vs. !AMD vs.
!Intel. And practically speaking, all x86 CPUs follow either Intel or AMD
architecture, i.e. "supporting" an unknown third architecture adds no
value.

Deliberately don't convert any of the existing guest_cpuid_is_intel()
checks, as the Intel side of things is messier due to some flows explicitly
checking for exactly vendor==Intel, versus some flows assuming anything
that isn't "AMD compatible" gets Intel behavior. The Intel code will be
cleaned up in the future.
