Add a VMX flag in /proc/cpuinfo, ept_5level, so that userspace can query
whether or not the CPU supports 5-level EPT paging. EPT capabilities are
enumerated via MSR, i.e. aren't accessible to userspace without help from
the kernel, and knowing whether or not 5-level EPT is supported is useful
for debug, triage, testing, etc.
For example, when EPT is enabled, bits 51:48 of guest physical addresses
are consumed by the CPU if and only if 5-level EPT is enabled. For CPUs
with MAXPHYADDR > 48, KVM *can't* map all legal guest memory without
5-level EPT, making 5-level EPT support valuable information for userspace.

Include the header containing the prototype of init_ia32_feat_ctl(),
solving the following warning:
$ make W=1 arch/x86/kernel/cpu/feat_ctl.o
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/feat_ctl.c:112:6: warning: no previous prototype for ‘init_ia32_feat_ctl’ [-Wmissing-prototypes]
112 | void init_ia32_feat_ctl(struct cpuinfo_x86 *c)
This warning appeared after commit
5d5103595e ("x86/cpu: Reinitialize IA32_FEAT_CTL MSR on BSP during wakeup")
had moved the function init_ia32_feat_ctl()'s prototype from
arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.h to arch/x86/include/asm/cpu.h.
Note that, before the commit mentioned above, the header include "cpu.h"
(arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpu.h) was added by commit
0e79ad863d ("x86/cpu: Fix a -Wmissing-prototypes warning for init_ia32_feat_ctl()")
solely to fix init_ia32_feat_ctl()'s missing prototype. So, the header
include "cpu.h" is no longer necessary.

A new 64-bit control field "tertiary processor-based VM-execution
controls", is defined [1]. It's controlled by bit 17 of the primary
processor-based VM-execution controls.
Different from its brother VM-execution fields, this tertiary VM-
execution controls field is 64 bit. So it occupies 2 vmx_feature_leafs,
TERTIARY_CTLS_LOW and TERTIARY_CTLS_HIGH.
Its companion VMX capability reporting MSR,MSR_IA32_VMX_PROCBASED_CTLS3
(0x492), is also semantically different from its brothers, whose 64 bits
consist of all allow-1, rather than 32-bit allow-0 and 32-bit allow-1 [1][2].
Therefore, its init_vmx_capabilities() is a little different from others.

The kernel will currently disable all SGX support if the hardware does
not support launch control. Make it more permissive to allow SGX
virtualization on systems without Launch Control support. This will
allow KVM to expose SGX to guests that have less-strict requirements on
the availability of flexible launch control.
Improve error message to distinguish between three cases. There are two
cases where SGX support is completely disabled:
1) SGX has been disabled completely by the BIOS
2) SGX LC is locked by the BIOS. Bare-metal support is disabled because
of LC unavailability. SGX virtualization is unavailable (because of
Kconfig).
One where it is partially available:
3) SGX LC is locked by the BIOS. Bare-metal support is disabled because
of LC unavailability. SGX virtualization is supported.

Kernel support for SGX is ultimately decided by the state of the launch
control bits in the feature control MSR (MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL). If the
hardware supports SGX, but neglects to support flexible launch control, the
kernel will not enable SGX.
Enable SGX at feature control MSR initialization and update the associated
X86_FEATURE flags accordingly. Disable X86_FEATURE_SGX (and all
derivatives) if the kernel is not able to establish itself as the authority
over SGX Launch Control.
All checks are performed for each logical CPU (not just boot CPU) in order
to verify that MSR_IA32_FEATURE_CONTROL is correctly configured on all
CPUs. All SGX code in this series expects the same configuration from all
CPUs.
This differs from VMX where X86_FEATURE_VMX is intentionally cleared only
for the current CPU so that KVM can provide additional information if KVM
fails to load like which CPU doesn't support VMX. There’s not much the
kernel or an administrator can do to fix the situation, so SGX neglects to
convey additional details about these kinds of failures if they occur.

Don't print an error message about VMX being disabled by BIOS if KVM,
the sole user of VMX, is disabled. E.g. if KVM is disabled and the MSR
is unlocked, the kernel will intentionally disable VMX when locking
feature control and then complain that "BIOS" disabled VMX.

Add a new feature flag, X86_FEATURE_MSR_IA32_FEAT_CTL, to track whether
IA32_FEAT_CTL has been initialized. This will allow KVM, and any future
subsystems that depend on IA32_FEAT_CTL, to rely purely on cpufeatures
to query platform support, e.g. allows a future patch to remove KVM's
manual IA32_FEAT_CTL MSR checks.
Various features (on platforms that support IA32_FEAT_CTL) are dependent
on IA32_FEAT_CTL being configured and locked, e.g. VMX and LMCE. The
MSR is always configured during boot, but only if the CPU vendor is
recognized by the kernel. Because CPUID doesn't incorporate the current
IA32_FEAT_CTL value in its reporting of relevant features, it's possible
for a feature to be reported as supported in cpufeatures but not truly
enabled, e.g. if the CPU supports VMX but the kernel doesn't recognize
the CPU.
As a result, without the flag, KVM would see VMX as supported even if
IA32_FEAT_CTL hasn't been initialized, and so would need to manually
read the MSR and check the various enabling bits to avoid taking an
unexpected #GP on VMXON.

Now that IA32_FEAT_CTL is always configured and locked for CPUs that are
known to support VMX[*], clear the VMX capability flag if the MSR is
unsupported or BIOS disabled VMX, i.e. locked IA32_FEAT_CTL and didn't
set the appropriate VMX enable bit.
[*] Because init_ia32_feat_ctl() is called from vendors ->c_init(), it's
still possible for IA32_FEAT_CTL to be left unlocked when VMX is
supported by the CPU. This is not fatal, and will be addressed in a
future patch.

Opportunistically initialize IA32_FEAT_CTL to enable VMX when the MSR is
left unlocked by BIOS. Configuring feature control at boot time paves
the way for similar enabling of other features, e.g. Software Guard
Extensions (SGX).
Temporarily leave equivalent KVM code in place in order to avoid
introducing a regression on Centaur and Zhaoxin CPUs, e.g. removing
KVM's code would leave the MSR unlocked on those CPUs and would break
existing functionality if people are loading kvm_intel on Centaur and/or
Zhaoxin. Defer enablement of the boot-time configuration on Centaur and
Zhaoxin to future patches to aid bisection.
Note, Local Machine Check Exceptions (LMCE) are also supported by the
kernel and enabled via feature control, but the kernel currently uses
LMCE if and only if the feature is explicitly enabled by BIOS. Keep
the current behavior to avoid introducing bugs, future patches can opt
in to opportunistic enabling if it's deemed desirable to do so.
Always lock IA32_FEAT_CTL if it exists, even if the CPU doesn't support
VMX, so that other existing and future kernel code that queries the MSR
can assume it's locked.
Start from a clean slate when constructing the value to write to
IA32_FEAT_CTL, i.e. ignore whatever value BIOS left in the MSR so as not
to enable random features or fault on the WRMSR.
