Muminul Islam c91fe5f162 mshv: Extend create partition ioctl to support cpu features
The existing mshv create partition ioctl does not provide a way to
specify which cpu features are enabled in the guest. Instead, it
attempts to enable all features and those that are not supported are
silently disabled by the hypervisor.

This was done to reduce unnecessary complexity and is sufficient for
many cases. However, new scenarios require fine-grained control over
these features.

Define a new mshv_create_partition_v2 structure which supports
passing the disabled processor and xsave feature bits through to the
create partition hypercall directly.

Introduce a new flag MSHV_PT_BIT_CPU_AND_XSAVE_FEATURES which enables
the new structure. If unset, the original mshv_create_partition struct
is used, with the old behavior of enabling all features.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
