In addition to the TCG based qemu64 type let's introduce a kvm64 CPU type,
which is the least common denominator of all KVM-capable x86-CPUs
(based on Intel Pentium 4 Prescott). It can be used as a base type
for migration.

The CPUID level determines how many CPUID leafs are exposed to the guest.
Some features (like multi-core) cannot be propagated without the proper
level, but guests maybe confused by bogus entries in some leafs.
So add level= and xlevel= to the list of -cpu options to allow the user to
override the default settings. While at it, merge unnecessary local
variables into one and allow hexadecimal arguments.

Controlled by the enhanced -smp option set the CPUID bits to present the
guest the desired topology. This is vendor specific, but (with the exception
of the CMP_LEGACY bit) not conflicting, so we set all bits everytime.
There is no real multithreading support for AMD CPUs, so report cores
instead.

handle_cpu_signal is very nearly copy-paste code for each target, with a
few minor variations. This patch sets up appropriate defaults for a
generic handle_cpu_signal and provides overrides for particular targets
that did things differently. Fixing things like the persistent (XXX:
use sigsetjmp) should now become somewhat easier.
Previous comments on this patch suggest that the "activate soft MMU for
this block" comments refer to defunct functionality. I have removed
such blocks for the appropriate targets in this patch.

kqemu introduces a number of restrictions on the i386 target. The worst is that
it prevents large memory from working in the default build.
Furthermore, kqemu is fundamentally flawed in a number of ways. It relies on
the TSC as a time source which will not be reliable on a multiple processor
system in userspace. Since most modern processors are multicore, this severely
limits the utility of kqemu.
kvm is a viable alternative for people looking to accelerate qemu and has the
benefit of being supported by the upstream Linux kernel. If someone can
implement work arounds to remove the restrictions introduced by kqemu, I'm
happy to avoid and/or revert this patch.
N.B. kqemu will still function in the 0.11 series but this patch removes it from
the 0.12 series.
Paul, please Ack or Nack this patch.

Since we recently do not disable 3DNOW! support anymore, we should
avoid setting the bits in the default qemu64 CPU model to ease
migration. TCG does not support it anyway and even AMD deprecates
it's usage nowadays.
If you want to use it in KVM, use the phenom, athlon or host CPU
model.

This patch aligns the KVM-related layout and encoding of the CPU state

If we want to trim the user provided CPUID bits for KVM to be not greater
than that of the host, we should not remove the bits _after_ we sent
them to the kernel.
This fixes the masking of features that are not present on the host by
moving the trim function and it's call from helper.c to kvm.c.
It helps to use -cpu host.

Although the guest's CPUID bits can be controlled in a fine grained way
in QEMU, a simple way to inject the host CPU is missing. This is handy
for KVM desktop virtualization, where one wants the guest to support the
full host feature set.
Introduce another CPU type called 'host', which will propagate the host's
CPUID bits to the guest. Unwanted bits can still be turned off by using
the existing syntax (-cpu host,-skinit)

KVM defaults to the hypervisor CPUID bit to be set, whereas pure
QEMU clears it. On some occasions one wants to set or clear it the
other way round (for instance to get HyperV running inside a guest).
Move the bit-set to be done before the command line parsing and
enable it by default. One can disable it by using: -cpu qemu64,-hypervisor

This patch changes this to handle them like all other events in a main

the TSC stabilizes migration in KVM mode. The interrupt_bitmap and
mp_state are currently unused, but will become relevant for in-kernel
