    kvm: x86: Expose Intel VPOPCNTDQ feature to guest · a17f3227
    Piotr Luc authored
    Vector population count instructions for dwords and qwords are to be
    used in future Intel Xeon & Xeon Phi processors. The bit 14 of
    CPUID[level:0x07, ECX] indicates that the new instructions are
    supported by a processor.
    
    The spec can be found in the Intel Software Developer Manual (SDM)
    or in the Instruction Set Extensions Programming Reference (ISE).
