KVM: x86: hyper-v: Make Hyper-V emulation enablement conditional
Hyper-V emulation is enabled in KVM unconditionally. This is bad at least from security standpoint as it is an extra attack surface. Ideally, there should be a per-VM capability explicitly enabled by VMM but currently it is not the case and we can't mandate one without breaking backwards compatibility. We can, however, check guest visible CPUIDs and only enable Hyper-V emulation when "Hv#1" interface was exposed in HYPERV_CPUID_INTERFACE. Note, VMMs are free to act in any sequence they like, e.g. they can try to set MSRs first and CPUIDs later so we still need to allow the host to read/write Hyper-V specific MSRs unconditionally.
