Subject: [patch 148/164] KVM: SVM: Report emulated SVM features to userspace

2.6.33-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Joerg Roedel <joerg.roedel@....com>

This patch implements the reporting of the emulated SVM
features to userspace instead of the real hardware
capabilities. Every real hardware capability needs emulation
in nested svm so the old behavior was broken.
