New microcode introduces the "Flush L1D Cache" CPUID feature bit.
This needs to be exposed to guest OS to allow them to protect against
CVE-2018-3646.

My understanding was that this is only required in the L0 hypervisor,
not the guests or nested hypervisors, which is why QEMU hadn't already
exposed this feature when L1TF first went public.

Copying Paolo for a definitive answer on that though....

Correct; in fact in addition to this patch you would have to patch KVM
to allow guest writes to MSR_IA32_FLUSH_CMD.

Hi,

This series failed the docker-quick@centos7 build test. Please find the testing commands and
their output below. If you have Docker installed, you can probably reproduce it
locally.
