[PATCH v2 1/4] target/i386: add support for FRED in CPUID enumeration

[Xin Li <xin3.li@intel.com>]

FRED, i.e., the Intel flexible return and event delivery architecture,
defines simple new transitions that change privilege level (ring
transitions).

The new transitions defined by the FRED architecture are FRED event
delivery and, for returning from events, two FRED return instructions.
FRED event delivery can effect a transition from ring 3 to ring 0, but
it is used also to deliver events incident to ring 0. One FRED
instruction (ERETU) effects a return from ring 0 to ring 3, while the
other (ERETS) returns while remaining in ring 0. Collectively, FRED
event delivery and the FRED return instructions are FRED transitions.

In addition to these transitions, the FRED architecture defines a new
instruction (LKGS) for managing the state of the GS segment register.
The LKGS instruction can be used by 64-bit operating systems that do
not use the new FRED transitions.

Search for the latest FRED spec in most search engines with this search
pattern:

  site:intel.com FRED (flexible return and event delivery) specification

The CPUID feature flag CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=1):EAX[17] enumerates FRED, and
the CPUID feature flag CPUID.(EAX=7,ECX=1):EAX[18] enumerates LKGS.

Add CPUID definitions for FRED/LKGS, and expose them to KVM guests only.

Because FRED relies on LKGS, add it to feature dependency map.
