Title:
  incorrect cpuid feature detection

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I am currently developing a x64 kernel and I wanted to check through
  cpuid if some features are available in the guest. When I try to
  enable cpu features like vmcb_clean or constant_tsc qemu is saying
  that my host doesn't support the requested features. However cat
  /proc/cpuinfo tells a different story:

  model name:  AMD Ryzen 5 3500U
  flags		: fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 clflush mmx fxsr sse sse2 ht syscall nx mmxext fxsr_opt pdpe1gb rdtscp lm constant_tsc rep_good nopl nonstop_tsc cpuid extd_apicid aperfmperf pni pclmulqdq monitor ssse3 fma cx16 sse4_1 sse4_2 movbe popcnt aes xsave avx f16c rdrand lahf_lm cmp_legacy svm extapic cr8_legacy abm sse4a misalignsse 3dnowprefetch osvw skinit wdt tce topoext perfctr_core perfctr_nb bpext perfctr_llc mwaitx cpb hw_pstate sme pti ssbd sev ibpb vmmcall fsgsbase bmi1 avx2 smep bmi2 rdseed adx smap clflushopt sha_ni xsaveopt xsavec xgetbv1 xsaves clzero irperf xsaveerptr arat npt lbrv svm_lock nrip_save tsc_scale vmcb_clean flushbyasid decodeassists pausefilter pfthreshold avic v_vmsave_vmload vgif overflow_recov succor smca

  I also checked it myself by running cpuid and check the bits as in the
  AMD Manual. Everything checks out but qemu still fails.

  QEMU version: QEMU emulator version 4.2.0

  $ qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu host,+vmcb_clean,enforce -enable-kvm -drive format=raw,file=target/x86_64-os/debug/bootimage-my_kernel.bin -serial stdio -display none
  qemu-system-x86_64: warning: host doesn't support requested feature: CPUID.8000000AH:EDX.vmcb-clean [bit 5]
  qemu-system-x86_64: Host doesn't support requested features

  or

  $ qemu-system-x86_64 -cpu host,+constant_tsc,enforce -enable-kvm -drive format=raw,file=target/x86_64-os/debug/bootimage-my_kernel.bin -serial stdio -display none
  qemu-system-x86_64: Property '.constant_tsc' not found
