Support for guest-MAXPHYADDR < host-MAXPHYADDR is not upstream yet,
it should not be enabled.  Otherwise, all the pde.36 and pte.36
fail and the test takes so long that it times out.

Works both VMX and SVM, thanks!

What's the status of the "guest-MAXPHYADDR < host-MAXPHYADDR" work?  I ask
because the AC_PTE_BIT51 and AC_PDE_BIT51 subtests are broken on CPUs with
52 bit PAs.  Is it worth sending a patch to temporarily disable those tests
if MAXPHYADDR=52?

Mohammed was working on it, we should have it in 5.9.

It's a QEMU bug that it does not enable host_phys_bits=on by default for
"-cpu host".  For now I'll tweak this patch to add it manually.

I actually did send a fix earlier
