[PATCH 03/22] KVM: x86: Support IBPB_BRTYPE and SBPB

From: Josh Poimboeuf
Date: Sun Aug 20 2023 - 21:19:36 EST


The IBPB_BRTYPE and SBPB CPUID bits aren't set by HW.

>From the AMD SRSO whitepaper:

"Hypervisor software should synthesize the value of both the
IBPB_BRTYPE and SBPB CPUID bits on these platforms for use by guest
software."

These bits are already set during kernel boot. Manually propagate them
to the guest.

Also, propagate PRED_CMD_SBPB writes.
