Subject: [PATCH v2 51/66] KVM: x86: Set emulated/transmuted feature bits via kvm_cpu_caps
Date: Mon,  2 Mar 2020 15:56:54 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200302235709.27467-52-sean.j.christopherson@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200302235709.27467-1-sean.j.christopherson@intel.com>

Set emulated and transmuted (set based on other features) feature bits
via kvm_cpu_caps now that the CPUID output for KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
is direcly overidden with kvm_cpu_caps.

Note, VMX emulation of UMIP already sets kvm_cpu_caps.

No functional change intended.
