Paolo Bonzini fbf5015141 KVM: x86: Do not return host topology information from KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
[ Upstream commit 45e966fcca ]

Passing the host topology to the guest is almost certainly wrong
and will confuse the scheduler.  In addition, several fields of
these CPUID leaves vary on each processor; it is simply impossible to
return the right values from KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID in such a way that
they can be passed to KVM_SET_CPUID2.

The values that will most likely prevent confusion are all zeroes.
Userspace will have to override it anyway if it wishes to present a
specific topology to the guest.
