Add a framework to manage and cache KVM-governed features, i.e. CPUID
based features that require explicit KVM enabling and/or need to be
queried semi-frequently by KVM.  The idea originally came up in the
context of the architectural LBRs series as a way to avoid querying
guest CPUID in hot paths without needing a dedicated flag, but as
evidenced by the shortlog, the most common usage is to handle the ever-
growing list of SVM features that are exposed to L1.

The first six patches are fixes and cleanups related to TSC scaling.
nSVM has WARN_ONs that can be triggered by userspace at will, and the
code is a bit crusty.  They aren't directly related to the governed
stuff, I stumbled upon the issues they fix when staring at the patch to
convert "TSC scaling enabled".  I included them here mainly to avoid
code conflicts.  I'm hoping all of this can go into 6.6, e.g. so that CET
support can build on guest_can_use(), but I can always grab the TSC
patches for 6.6 if the governed stuff needs more time.

Note, I still don't like the name "governed", but no one has suggested
anything else, let alone anything better :-)

v2:
 - Add patches to clean up TSC scaling.
 - Add a comment explaining the virtual VMLOAD/VMLAVE vs. SYSENTER on
   Intel madness.
 - Use a governed feature for X86_FEATURE_VMX.
 - Incorporate KVM capabilities into the main check-and-set helper. [Chao]
