kvm_x86_ops.cpuid_update() is used to update vmx/svm settings based on
updated CPUID settings. So it's supposed to be called after CPUIDs are
fully updated, not in the middle stage.

Are you seeing anything bad happening from this?

Not yet.

IMO changing the order is more reasonable and less confusing.

Indeed, I just could not decide whether to include it in 5.7 or not.

Maybe for 5.8

I have a new idea to refactor a bit more that I find it does three 
things in kvm_update_cpuid():
- update cpuid;
- update vcpu states, e.g., apic->lapic_timer.timer_mode_mask, 
guest_supported_xcr0, maxphyaddr, ... etc,
- cpuid check, for vaddr_bits

I'm going to split it, and make the order as:
1. kvm_check_cpuid(), if invalid value return error;
2. kvm_update_cpuid();
3. kvm_update_state_based_on_cpuid();
    and kvm_x86_ops.kvm_x86_ops.cpuid_update() can be called inside it.

If you feel OK, I'll do it tomorrow.
