x86/speculation: Use ARCH_CAPABILITIES to skip L1D flush on vmentry

bonzini · KAGA-KOKO · commit 8e0b2b916662 · 2018-08-05T17:10:19.000+02:00
Bit 3 of ARCH_CAPABILITIES tells a hypervisor that L1D flush on vmentry is
not needed.  Add a new value to enum vmx_l1d_flush_state, which is used
either if there is no L1TF bug at all, or if bit 3 is set in ARCH_CAPABILITIES.
