Oliver Upton cc7f5577ad KVM: SVM: Inhibit APIC virtualization for X2APIC guest
The AVIC does not support guest use of the x2APIC interface. Currently,
KVM simply chooses to squash the x2APIC feature in the guest's CPUID
If the AVIC is enabled. Doing so prevents KVM from running a guest
with greater than 255 vCPUs, as such a guest necessitates the use
of the x2APIC interface.

Instead, inhibit AVIC enablement on a per-VM basis whenever the x2APIC
feature is set in the guest's CPUID.

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 Restructured Text 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.
