The existing apic_id = cpu_index code has no visible effect: the PC code
already initializes the APIC ID according to the topology on
pc_new_cpu(), and linux-user memcpy()s the CPU state (including
cpuid_apic_id) on cpu_copy().
Remove the dead code and simply let APIC ID to to be 0 by default. This
doesn't change behavior of PC because apic-id is already explicitly set,
and doesn't affect linux-user because APIC ID was already always 0.

After the next patch, if a masked PIC interrupts causes CPU_INTERRUPT_POLL
to be set, the CPU will spuriously get out of halted state. While this
is technically valid, we should avoid that.
Make CPU_INTERRUPT_POLL run apic_update_irq in the right thread and then
look at CPU_INTERRUPT_HARD. If CPU_INTERRUPT_HARD does not get set,
do not report the CPU as having work.
Also move the handling of software-disabled APIC from apic_update_irq
to apic_irq_pending, and always trigger CPU_INTERRUPT_POLL. This will
be important once we will add a case that resets CPU_INTERRUPT_HARD
from apic_update_irq. We want to run it even if we go through
CPU_INTERRUPT_POLL, and even if the local APIC is software disabled.

TCG doesn't support VMX, and nested VMX is not enabled by default in the

So, there's no reason to have VMX enabled by default on the core2duo and
coreduo CPU models, today. Even the newer Intel CPU model definitions
don't have it enabled.
In this case, we need machine-type compat code, as people may be running

The following CPU features were never supported by neither TCG or KVM,
so they are useless on the CPU model definitions, today:
* CPUID_DTS (DS)

* CPUID_TM
* CPUID_PBE
* CPUID_EXT_DTES64
* CPUID_EXT_DSCPL
* CPUID_EXT_EST
* CPUID_EXT_TM2
* CPUID_EXT_XTPR
* CPUID_EXT_PDCM
* CPUID_SVM_LBRV
As using "enforce" mode is the only way to ensure guest ABI doesn't
change when moving to a different host, we should make "enforce" mode
the default or at least encourage management software to always use it.
In turn, to make "enforce" usable, we need CPU models that work without
always requiring some features to be explicitly disabled. This patch
removes the above features from all CPU model definitions.
We won't need any machine-type compat code for those changes, because it
is impossible to have existing VMs with those features enabled.

The x86_cpu_compat_disable_kvm_features() name was a bit confusing, as
it won't forcibly disable the feature for all CPU models (i.e. add it to

auto-enabling of the feature (i.e. remove it from kvm_default_features),
meaning the feature may still be enabled by default in some CPU models).

When the "migratable" property was implemented, the behavior was tested
by changing the default on the code, but actually using the option on
the command-line (e.g. "-cpu host,migratable=false") doesn't work as
expected. This is a regression for a common use case of "-cpu host",
which is to enable features that are supported by the host CPU + kernel
before feature-specific code is added to QEMU.
Fix this by initializing the feature words for "-cpu host" on
x86_cpu_parse_featurestr(), right after parsing the CPU options.

The SDM specifies (June 2014 Vol3 11.11.5):
On a hardware reset, the P6 and more recent processors clear the
valid flags in variable-range MTRRs and clear the E flag in the
IA32_MTRR_DEF_TYPE MSR to disable all MTRRs. All other bits in the
MTRRs are undefined.
We currently do none of that, so whatever MTRR settings you had prior
to reset is what you have after reset. Usually this doesn't matter
because KVM often ignores the guest mappings and uses write-back
anyway. However, if you have an assigned device and an IOMMU that
allows NoSnoop for that device, KVM defers to the guest memory
mappings which are now stale after reset. The result is that OVMF
rebooting on such a configuration takes a full minute to LZMA
decompress the firmware volume, a process that is nearly instant on
the initial boot.

KVM_FEATURE_CLOCKSOURCE_STABLE_BIT is enabled by default and supported
by KVM. But not having a name defined makes QEMU treat it as an unknown
and unmigratable feature flag (as any unknown feature may possibly
require state to be migrated), and disable it by default on "-cpu host".
As a side-effect, the new name also makes the flag configurable,
allowing the user to disable it (which may be useful for testing or for
