I have no preference for where to do rdmsrl() in kvm_arch_init()
or kvm_arch_hardware_setup().

It's true the assignment of supported_xss in the kvm/intel
tree is redundant and introducing KVM_SUPPORTED_XSS is also fine to me.

I will move the above part to the LBR patch
and leave the left part as a pre-patch for Paolo's review.

if (!cpu_has_vmx_xsaves())
	supported_xss = 0;
	kvm_cpu_cap_clear(X86_FEATURE_XSAVES);
