[PATCH v2] x86: Skip WBINVD instruction for VM guest

[Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan <sathyanarayanan.kuppuswamy@linux.intel.com>]

ACPI mandates that CPU caches be flushed before entering any sleep
state. This ensures that the CPU and its caches can be powered down
without losing data.

ACPI-based VMs have maintained this sleep-state-entry behavior.
However, cache flushing for VM sleep state entry is useless. Unlike on
bare metal, guest sleep states are not correlated with potential data
loss of any kind; the host is responsible for data preservation. In
fact, some KVM configurations simply skip the cache flushing
instruction (see need_emulate_wbinvd()).

Further, on TDX systems, the WBINVD instruction causes an
unconditional #VE exception.  If this cache flushing remained, it would
need extra code in the form of a #VE handler.

All use of ACPI_FLUSH_CPU_CACHE() appears to be in sleep-state-related
code.

This means that the ACPI use of WBINVD is at *best* superfluous.

Disable ACPI CPU cache flushing on all X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR systems,
which includes TDX.

Changes since v1:
 * Used cpu_feature_enabled() instead of boot_cpu_has().
