For these CPUID leaves, the EDX output is not dependent on the ECX
input (i.e. the SIGNIFCANT_INDEX flag doesn't apply to
EDX). Furthermore, the low byte of the ECX output is always identical
to the low byte of the ECX input. KVM does not produce the correct ECX
and EDX outputs for any undefined subleaves beyond the first.

Special-case these CPUID leaves in kvm_cpuid, so that the ECX and EDX
outputs are properly generated for all undefined subleaves.

Fixes: 0771671749b59a ("KVM: Enhance guest cpuid management")
Fixes: a87f2d3a6eadab ("KVM: x86: Add Intel CPUID.1F cpuid emulation support")

This is absolutely not stable material.  Is it possible for KVM to opt
out of this AUTOSEL nonsense?

Sure, I've opted out KVM and removed all KVM patches from this series:

c1fac4516a61d kvm: vmx: Limit guest PMCs to those supported on the host
75b118586ec81 kvm: x86, powerpc: do not allow clearing largepages debugfs entry
06cd1710feaed KVM: VMX: Set VMENTER_L1D_FLUSH_NOT_REQUIRED if !X86_BUG_L1TF
c89fc5c082aa6 KVM: x86: Expose XSAVEERPTR to the guest
1eec6b4068e2e kvm: x86: Use AMD CPUID semantics for AMD vCPUs
5c56e6ba0afc8 kvm: x86: Improve emulation of CPUID leaves 0BH and 1FH
94a3c6f010bd2 kvm: x86: Fix a spurious -E2BIG in __do_cpuid_func
79a7ad6330bc5 KVM: arm/arm64: vgic: Use the appropriate TRACE_INCLUDE_PATH
