I want to have equivalents to the cpuid_entry_*() APIs so that we don't end up
with two different sets of names.  And the clear() API already has a second user.

Hrm, I open coded the OR/AND logic in cpuid_entry_change() to try to force CMOV
instead of Jcc.  That honestly seems like a pointless optimization.  I would
rather use the helpers, which is less code.

"sync" isn't correct because it's not synchronizing with KVM's capabilitiy, e.g.
the guest capability will remaing unset if the guest CPUID bit is clear but the
KVM capability is available.

How about constrain()?
