This is kinda sorta v2 of Sandipan's fix for KVM's incorrect setting of the MASK bit when delivering PMIs through the LVTPC. It's a bit rushed, as I want to get Sandipan's fix applied early next week so that it can make its way to Linus' tree for -rc4. And I didn't want to apply Sandipan's patch as-is, because I'm a little paranoid that the guest CPUID check could be noticeable slow, and it's easy to avoid. My plan is to grab patches 1-2 for 6.9 asap, and let the rest simmer for much, much longer (they are *very* lightly tested). As for why this looks wildy different than Sandipan's compat_vendor idea, when I started looking at KVM's various AMD vs. Intel checks, I realized it makes no sense to support an "unknown" vendor. KVM can't do *nothing*, and so practically speaking, an "unknown" vendor vCPU would actually end up with a weird mix of AMD *and* Intel behavior, not AMD *or* Intel behavior.
