The AMD Zen4 core supports a new feature called Automatic IBRS
(Indirect Branch Restricted Speculation).

Enable Automatic IBRS by default if the CPU feature is present.
It typically provides greater performance over the incumbent
generic retpolines mitigation.

Patches 1-3 take the existing CPUID 0x80000021 EAX feature bits
that are being propagated to the guest and define scattered
versions for patch 4.

Patch 4 moves CPUID 0x80000021 EAX feature bits propagation code
to kvm_set_cpu_caps().

Patch 5 Defines the AutoIBRS feature bit.

Patch 6 Adds support for AutoIBRS by turning its EFER
enablement bit on at startup if the feature is available.

Patch 7 Adds support for propagating AutoIBRS to the guest.

Thanks to Babu Moger for helping debug guest propagation.
Babu, feel free to add your Co-developed and Signed-off-bys
to patches 4 and/or 7?

v3: Addressed v2 comments:
    - Remove Co-developed-bys.  They require signed-off-bys,
      so co-developers need to add them themselves.
    - update check_null_seg_clears_base() [Boris]
    - Made the feature bit additions separate patches
      because v2 patch was clearly doing too many things at once.

v2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2022/11/23/1690
    - Use synthetic/scattered bits instead of introducing new leaf [Boris]
    - Combine the rest of the leaf's bits being used [Paolo]
      Note: Bits not used by the host can be moved to kvm/cpuid.c if
      maintainers do not want them in cpufeatures.h.
    - Hoist bitsetting code to kvm_set_cpu_caps(), and use
      cpuid_entry_override() in __do_cpuid_func() [Paolo]
    - Reuse SPECTRE_V2_EIBRS spectre_v2_mitigation enum [Boris, PeterZ, D.Hansen]
      - Change from Boris' diff:
        Moved setting X86_FEATURE_IBRS_ENHANCED to after BUG_EIBRS_PBRSB
        so PBRSB mitigations wouldn't be enabled.
    - Allow for users to specify "autoibrs,lfence/retpoline" instead
      of actively preventing the extra protections.  AutoIBRS doesn't
      require the extra protection, but we allow it anyway.
