Hi Radim, Paolo:

In porting this patch series to v4.14, I'm getting this BUILD_BUG_ON:

In file included from arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c:21:0:
In function 'x86_feature_cpuid',
inlined from 'guest_cpuid_get_register' at arch/x86/kvm/cpuid.h:72:25,

I think this is caused by the following call stack for
X86_FEATURE_SPEC_CTRL, but if not please correct me here:

arch/x86/kvm/vmx.c:
vmx_get_msr/vmx_set_msr()
guest_cpuid_has(vcpu, X86_FEATURE_SPEC_CTRL)
guest_cpuid_get_register(vcpu, x86_feature);
x86_feature_cpuid(x86_feature);
x86_feature_cpuid(unsigned x86_feature)
BUILD_BUG_ON(reverse_cpuid[x86_leaf].function == 0);


It looks like I need to add something to reverse_cpuid[] but I'm not sure
what.

Do you know what needs to be added here?

-Eric
