[PATCH] KVM: Workaround cr0.cd (cache disable) bit leak from guest to host

[Avi Kivity <avi@qumranet.com>]

On Core-not-2 processors (or on laptops - not sure what the cause is), the
cache disable bit sometimes leaks from the guest cr0 to the host cr0.  This
leaves the host limping along at a snail's pace long after the guest has
left.  This might be a bug in the processor or in the smm (system management
mode) bios.

Workaround by giving the guest a virtual cr0.cd (and also cr0.nw for good
measure) and keeping the real bits always clear.

This makes sense even without the bug:  the processor cache is a host
resource, not a guest resource, and the guest has no business disabling it.
