Subject: [PATCH 10/30] KVM: Add FFXSR support

From: Alexander Graf <agraf@...e.de>

AMD K10 CPUs implement the FFXSR feature that gets enabled using
EFER. Let's check if the virtual CPU description includes that
CPUID feature bit and allow enabling it then.

This is required for Windows Server 2008 in Hyper-V mode.

v2 adds CPUID capability exposure
