[Qemu-devel] [PATCHv4 3/4] cpuid: disable pv eoi for 1.1 and older compat types

[Michael S. Tsirkin]

In preparation for adding PV EOI support, disable PV EOI by default for
1.1 and older machine types, to avoid CPUID changing during migration.

PV EOI can still be enabled/disabled by specifying it explicitly.
    Enable for 1.1
    -M pc-1.1 -cpu kvm64,+kvm_pv_eoi
    Disable for 1.2
    -M pc-1.2 -cpu kvm64,-kvm_pv_eoi
