[PATCH v2 0/4] KVM: x86: Introduce quirk KVM_X86_QUIRK_EPT_IGNORE_GUEST_PAT

[Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>]

This series is my evolution of Yan's patches at
https://patchew.org/linux/20250224070716.31360-1-yan.y.zhao@intel.com/.

The implementation of the quirk is unchanged, but the concepts in kvm_caps
are a bit different.  In particular:

- if a quirk is not applicable to some hardware, it is still included
  in KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS2.  This way userspace knows that KVM is
  *aware* of a particular issue - even if disabling it has no effect
  because the quirk is not a problem on a specific hardware, userspace
  may want to know that it can rely on the problematic behavior not
  being present.  Therefore, KVM_X86_QUIRK_EPT_IGNORE_GUEST_PAT is
  simply auto-disabled on TDX machines.

- if instead a quirk cannot be disabled due to limitations, for example
  KVM_X86_QUIRK_EPT_IGNORE_GUEST_PAT if self-snoop is not present on
  the CPU, the quirk is removed completely from kvm_caps.supported_quirks
  and therefore from KVM_CAP_DISABLE_QUIRKS2.

This series does not introduce a way to query always-disabled quirks,
which could be for example KVM_CAP_DISABLED_QUIRKS.  This could be
added if we wanted for example to get rid of hypercall patching; it's
a trivial addition.
