[ Upstream commit feb627e8d6f69c9a319fe279710959efb3eba873 ]

Commit 63f5a1909f9e ("KVM: x86: Alert userspace that KVM_SET_CPUID{,2}
after KVM_RUN is broken") officially deprecated KVM_SET_CPUID{,2} ioctls
after first successful KVM_RUN and promissed to make this sequence forbiden
in 5.16. It's time to fulfil the promise.
