Paolo Bonzini a47dd5f067 x86/KVM/VMX: Add L1D flush algorithm 
To mitigate the L1 Terminal Fault vulnerability it's required to flush L1D
on VMENTER to prevent rogue guests from snooping host memory.

CPUs will have a new control MSR via a microcode update to flush L1D with a
single MSR write, but in the absence of microcode a fallback to a software
based flush algorithm is required.

Add a software flush loop which is based on code from Intel.
