Can we probably add the comment about what can be done here and what
needs to go to svm_set_supported_cpuid()? (The one about 'emulation'
from your commit message would do).

Unrelated to your patch but the way we handle 'nrips' is a bit weird: we
can disable it with 'nrips' module parameter but L1 hypervisor will get
it unconditionally.

Also, what about all the rest of 0x8000000A.EDX features? Nested SVM
would appreciate some love...
