Clean up a handful of interrelated warts in the kernel's handling of VMX:
Enable VMX in IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL during boot instead of on-demand during KVM load to avoid future contention over IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL.
Rework VMX feature reporting so that it is accurate and up-to-date, now and in the future.
Consolidate code across CPUs that support VMX.
Ok, this is shaping up slowly to be upstream-ready, AFAICT.
How are we merging the next revision, after the minor things have been taken care of? Through tip?
Paolo?
