Subject: [PATCH 0/2] expose hypervisor information on cpuid

This discussion happened some days ago in kvm list.
We believe it's useful to advertise hypervisor information
somewhere. /proc/cpuinfo appears as one good candidate.

This patch shows this information for vmware, kvm, and the
string "none", otherwise. (someone would have to do it for xen,
and possibly others, if this patch is to be accepted).
