Changes since v7:
- Make eVMCS version check future proof [Eduardo]
- Collect R-b tags [Eduardo]
- Drop 'if (!strcmp(arch, "i386") || !strcmp(arch, "x86_64"))' check from qtest
 [Eduardo]
- s/priviliges/privileges/ [Eric]

The last two functional patches are inspired by 'Fine-grained access check
to Hyper-V hypercalls and MSRs' work for KVM:

Original description:

Upper layer tools like libvirt want to figure out which Hyper-V features are
supported by the underlying stack (QEMU/KVM) but currently they are unable to
do so. We have a nice 'hv_passthrough' CPU flag supported by QEMU but it has
no effect on e.g. QMP's 

query-cpu-model-expansion type=full model={"name":"host","props":{"hv-passthrough":true}}

command as we parse Hyper-V features after creating KVM vCPUs and not at
feature expansion time. To support the use-case we first need to make 
KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_HV_CPUID ioctl a system-wide ioctl as the existing
vCPU version can't be used that early. This is what KVM part does. With
that done, we can make early Hyper-V feature expansion (this series).

Vitaly Kuznetsov (9):
  i386: avoid hardcoding '12' as 'hyperv_vendor_id' length
  i386: clarify 'hv-passthrough' behavior
  i386: hardcode supported eVMCS version to '1'
  i386: make hyperv_expand_features() return bool
  i386: expand Hyper-V features during CPU feature expansion time
  i386: kill off hv_cpuid_check_and_set()
  i386: HV_HYPERCALL_AVAILABLE privilege bit is always needed
  i386: Hyper-V SynIC requires POST_MESSAGES/SIGNAL_EVENTS privileges
  qtest/hyperv: Introduce a simple hyper-v test

I'm finally queueing this (please ignore my reply to v7).
Thanks, and sorry for the delay!
