target/i386: Advertise MWAIT iff host supports
host_cpu_realizefn() sets CPUID_EXT_MONITOR without consulting host/KVM
capabilities. This may cause problems:
- If MWAIT/MONITOR is not available on the host, advertising this
feature to the guest and executing MWAIT/MONITOR from the guest
triggers #UD and the guest doesn't boot. This is because typically
#UD takes priority over VM-Exit interception checks and KVM doesn't
emulate MONITOR/MWAIT on #UD.
- If KVM doesn't support KVM_X86_DISABLE_EXITS_MWAIT, MWAIT/MONITOR
from the guest are intercepted by KVM, which is not what cpu-pm=on
intends to do.
In these cases, MWAIT/MONITOR should not be exposed to the guest.
The logic in kvm_arch_get_supported_cpuid() to handle CPUID_EXT_MONITOR
is correct and sufficient, and we can't set CPUID_EXT_MONITOR after
x86_cpu_filter_features().
This was not an issue before commit 662175b91ff ("i386: reorder call to
cpu_exec_realizefn") because the feature added in the accel-specific
realizefn could be checked against host availability and filtered out.
Additionally, it seems not a good idea to handle guest CPUID leaves in
host_cpu_realizefn(), and this patch merges host_cpu_enable_cpu_pm()
into kvm_cpu_realizefn().

Fixes: 662175b91ff2 ("i386: reorder call to cpu_exec_realizefn")
