Per SDM:
When CPUID executes with EAX set to 80000000H, the processor returns
the highest value the processor recognizes for returning extended
processor information. The value is returned in the EAX register and is
processor specific.
This patch caches this value in the global cpuinfo_x86.cpuid_leaves. This
value will be used to check the availability of any CPUID extended
function.

enable Xsave feature and pass-through it to guests
update based on v2:
- enable host xsave before expose it to guests.
- add validation for the value to be set to 'xcr0' before call xsetbv
when handling xsetbv vmexit.
- tested in SOS guest, created two threads to do different
FP calculations,test code runs in user land of sos.

According to C99:
The empty list in a function declarator that is not part of a definition of
that function specifies that no information about the number or types of the
parameters is supplied.
This means gcc is happy with the following code, which is undesirable.
void foo(); /* declaration with an empty parameter list */
void bar() {
foo(); /* OK */
foo(1); /* OK */
foo(1, 2); /* OK */
}
This patch fixes declarations of functions with empty parameter lists by adding
an unnamed parameter of type void, which is the standard way to specify that a
function has no parameters. The following coccinelle script is used.
@@
type T;
identifier f;
@@
-T f();
+T f(void);
New compilation errors are fixed accordingly.

this patch is to detect and enable only APICv features which
are actually supported by the processor, instead fo tuning on
all features by default.

On the APL NUC board (CPU family: 0x6 model: 92), the monitor is buggy.
We can't use it to wake up CPU core from mwait by memory monitor.
