KVM: x86: Manually retrieve CPUID.0x1 when getting FMS for RESET/INIT
Manually look for a CPUID.0x1 entry instead of bouncing through kvm_cpuid() when retrieving the Family-Model-Stepping information for vCPU RESET/INIT. This fixes a potential undefined behavior bug due to kvm_cpuid() using the uninitialized "dummy" param as the ECX _input_, a.k.a. the index. A more minimal fix would be to simply zero "dummy", but the extra work in kvm_cpuid() is wasteful, and KVM should be treating the FMS retrieval as an out-of-band access, e.g. same as how KVM computes guest.MAXPHYADDR. Both Intel's SDM and AMD's APM describe the RDX value at RESET/INIT as holding the CPU's FMS information, not as holding CPUID.0x1.EAX. KVM's usage of CPUID entries to get FMS is simply a pragmatic approach to avoid having yet another way for userspace to provide inconsistent data. No functional change intended.
