[Qemu-devel] [PULL v2 5/5] target-i386: Disable SVM by default in KVM mode

[Andreas Färber]

From: Eduardo Habkost <address@hidden>

Make SVM be disabled by default on all CPU models when in KVM mode.
Nested SVM is enabled by default in the KVM kernel module, but it is
probably less stable than nested VMX (which is already disabled by
default).

Add a new compat function, x86_cpu_compat_kvm_no_autodisable(), to keep
compatibility on previous machine-types.
