Changes since v3: - Use memcmp() [Sean]. - Update the comment in kvm_set_cpuid() making (hopefully) it more clear that the introduced check does not cover all potentially problemmatic scenarios [Sean]. - Add "KVM: x86: Move CPUID.(EAX=0x12,ECX=1) mangling to __kvm_update_cpuid_runtime()" patch. Original description: Recently, KVM made it illegal to change CPUID after KVM_RUN but unfortunately this change is not fully compatible with existing VMMs. In particular, QEMU reuses vCPU fds for CPU hotplug after unplug and it calls KVM_SET_CPUID2. Relax the requirement by implementing an allowing KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} with the exact same data.
