target/i386: Mask CMPLegacy bit in CPUID[0x80000001].ECX for Zhaoxin CPUs
Zhaoxin CPUs (including vendors "Shanghai" and "Centaurhauls") handle the CMPLegacy bit similarly to Intel CPUs. Therefore, this commit masks the CMPLegacy bit in CPUID[0x80000001].ECX for Zhaoxin CPUs, just as it is done for Intel CPUs. AMD uses the CMPLegacy bit (CPUID[0x80000001].ECX.bit1) along with other CPUID information to enumerate platform topology (e.g., the number of logical processors per package). However, for Intel and other CPUs that follow Intel's behavior, CPUID[0x80000001].ECX.bit1 is reserved. - Impact on Intel and similar CPUs: This change has no effect on Intel and similar CPUs, as the goal is to accurately emulate CPU CPUID information. - Impact on Linux Guests running on Intel (and similar) vCPUs: During boot, Linux checks if the CPU supports Hyper-Threading. For the Linux kernel before v6.9, if it detects X86_FEATURE_CMP_LEGACY, it assumes Hyper-Threading is not supported. For Intel and similar vCPUs, if the CMPLegacy bit is not masked in CPUID[0x80000001].ECX, Linux will incorrectly assume that Hyper-Threading is not supported, even if the vCPU does support it.
