From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@xxxxxxxxxxx>
First of all, we only need this EPT identity and TSS reservation on
Intel CPUs. Then, in order to support loading BIOSes > 256K, reorder the
code, adjusting the base if the kernel supports moving the identity map.
We can drop the check for KVM_CAP_SET_TSS_ADDR as we already depend on
much newer features.
