return/jump-oriented programming (ROP) attacks. To make kvm Guest OS own

report and xsaves/xrstors support etc in qemu.

Changelog:
 v2:
 - In CPUID.(EAX=d, ECX=1), set return ECX[n] = 0 if bit n corresponds 
   to a bit in MSR_IA32_XSS.
 - In CPUID.(EAX=d, ECX=n), set return ECX = 1 if bit n corresponds
   to a bit in MSR_IA32_XSS.
 - Skip Supervisor mode xsave component when calculate User mode
   xave component size in xsave_area_size() and x86_cpu_reset(). 

Yang Weijiang (4):
  Add CET xsaves/xrstors related macros and structures.
  Add CET SHSTK and IBT CPUID feature-word definitions.
