This woud be wrong for i > 1, so instead make this

	if (entry->eax >= 1)


I am confused about the @index parameter. @index seems not used for
every case except 0x07. Since the caller function only has @index=0, so
all other cases except 0x07 put cpuid info from subleaf=0 to max subleaf.

What do you think about @index in current function? Does it mean, we
need put cpuid from index to max subleaf to @entry[i]? If so, the logic
seems as follows,

if (index == 0) {
    // Put subleaf 0 into @entry
    // Put subleaf 1 into @entry[1]
} else if (index < entry->eax) {
    // Put subleaf 1 into @entry
} else {
    // Put all zero into @entry
}

But this seems not identical with other cases, for current caller
function. Or we can simply ignore @index in 0x07 and just put all possible
subleaf info back?

and define F(AVX512_BF16) as a new constant kvm_cpuid_7_1_eax_features.

Got it.


Thanks,
Jing
