Subject: [25/66] KVM: X86: Report SVM bit to userspace only when supported

2.6.36-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

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

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

commit 4c62a2dc92518c5adf434df8e5c2283c6762672a upstream.

This patch fixes a bug in KVM where it _always_ reports the
support of the SVM feature to userspace. But KVM only
supports SVM on AMD hardware and only when it is enabled in
the kernel module. This patch fixes the wrong reporting.
