KVM_GET_CPUID2 kvm ioctl is not very well documented, but the way it is
implemented in function kvm_vcpu_ioctl_get_cpuid2 suggests that even at
error path it will try to return number of entries to the caller. But
The dispatcher kvm vcpu ioctl dispatcher code in kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl
ignores any output from this function if it sees the error return code.
It's very explicit by the code that it was designed to receive some
small number of entries to return E2BIG along with the corrected number.
This lost logic in the dispatcher code has been restored by removing the
lines that check for function return code and skip if error is found.
Without it, the ioctl caller will see both the number of entries and the
correct error.
In selftests relevant function vcpu_get_cpuid has also been modified to
utilize the number of cpuid entries returned along with errno E2BIG.

v2:
- Added description to documentation of KVM_GET_CPUID2.
- Copy back nent only if E2BIG is returned.

+:Capability: basic
+:Architectures: x86
+:Type: vcpu ioctl
+:Parameters: struct kvm_cpuid (in/out)
+:Returns: 0 on success, -1 on error
+
+Returns a full list of cpuid entries that are supported by this vcpu and were
+previously set by KVM_SET_CPUID/KVM_SET_CPUID2.
+
+The userspace must specify the number of cpuid entries it is ready to accept
+from the kernel in the 'nent' field of 'struct kmv_cpuid'.
+
+The kernel will try to return all the cpuid entries it has in the response.
+If the userspace nent value is too small for the full response, the kernel will
+set the error code to -E2BIG, set the same 'nent' field to the actual number of
+cpuid_entries and return without writing back any entries to the userspace.
+The userspace can thus implement a two-call sequence, where the first call is
+made with nent set to 0 to read the number of entries from the kernel and
+use this response to allocate enough memory for a full response for the second
+call.
+
+The call cal also return with error code -EFAULT in case of other errors.
