KVM: x86: Do not return host topology information from KVM_GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
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.

+CPU topology
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Several CPUID values include topology information for the host CPU:
+0x0b and 0x1f for Intel systems, 0x8000001e for AMD systems. Different
+versions of KVM return different values for this information and userspace
+should not rely on it. Currently they return all zeroes.
+
+If userspace wishes to set up a guest topology, it should be careful that
+the values of these three leaves differ for each CPU. In particular,
+the APIC ID is found in EDX for all subleaves of 0x0b and 0x1f, and in EAX
+for 0x8000001e; the latter also encodes the core id and node id in bits
+7:0 of EBX and ECX respectively.
