But that's redundant, isn't it? We already get the host vendor ID in the
three registers in entry, and the current code is just there to overwrite
this. So just removing the whole "case 0:" part should do the trick.
Also please be aware that there was a reason for this fixup, as explained
in commit bc0b99a2a740 ("kvm tools: Filter out CPU vendor string").
Alex, did you boot this on an AMD box, to spot if this is still an issue?
Cheers,
Andre
