[PATCH] qemu-kvm: fix KVMs GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID feature usage

[Andre Przywara]

If we want to trim the user provided CPUID bits for KVM to be not greater
than that of the host, we should
a) not remove the bits _after_ we sent them to the kernel  and
b) not do the bitmangling on the original values while sending a copy
This fixes the masking of features that are not present on the host and
helps to use -cpu host.

Hi,
this is a port of patch 4/6 of my "-cpu host" series for QEMU.
The bug is similar, although the fix is a different one (different files).
Even without "-cpu host" features that the host does not support are
currently _not_ disabled as intended, so I consider this a bugfix.

Regards,
Andre.
