First two patches are bug fixing, and the others aim to refactor the flow
of SET_CPUID* as:

1. cpuid check: check if userspace provides legal CPUID settings;

2. cpuid update: Update some special CPUID bits based on current vcpu
                  state, e.g., OSXSAVE, OSPKE, ...

3. update vcpu model: Update vcpu model (settings) based on the final CPUID
                       settings.

v3:
  - Add a note in KVM api doc to state the previous CPUID configuration
    is not reliable if current KVM_SET_CPUID* fails [Jim]
  - Adjust Patch 2 to reduce code churn [Sean]
  - Commit message refine to add more justification [Sean]
  - Add a new patch (7)

v2:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200623115816.24132-1-xiaoyao.li@xxxxxxxxx
  - rebase to kvm/queue: a037ff353ba6 ("Merge branch 'kvm-master' into HEAD")
  - change the name of kvm_update_state_based_on_cpuid() to
    kvm_update_vcpu_model() [Sean]
  - Add patch 5 to rename kvm_x86_ops.cpuid_date() to
    kvm_x86_ops.update_vcpu_model()

v1:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200529085545.29242-1-xiaoyao.li@xxxxxxxxx

Xiaoyao Li (8):
   KVM: X86: Reset vcpu->arch.cpuid_nent to 0 if SET_CPUID* fails
   KVM: X86: Go on updating other CPUID leaves when leaf 1 is absent
   KVM: X86: Introduce kvm_check_cpuid()
   KVM: X86: Split kvm_update_cpuid()
   KVM: X86: Rename cpuid_update() to update_vcpu_model()
   KVM: X86: Move kvm_x86_ops.update_vcpu_model() into
     kvm_update_vcpu_model()
   KVM: lapic: Use guest_cpuid_has() in kvm_apic_set_version()
   KVM: X86: Move kvm_apic_set_version() to kvm_update_vcpu_model()

Queued patches 1/2/3/7/8, thanks.

Paolo,

I notice that you queued patch 8 into kvm/queue branch as
commit 84dd4897524e "KVM: X86: Move kvm_apic_set_version() to kvm_update_vcpu_model()"

Can you change the subject of that commit to "KVM: X86: Move kvm_apic_set_version() to kvm_update_cpuid()" ?

Paolo
