From: Jing Liu <redacted> Disable read emulation of IA32_XFD_ERR MSR if guest cpuid includes XFD. This saves one unnecessary VM-exit in guest #NM handler, given that the MSR is already restored with the guest value before the guest is resumed.

This should be kvm_cpu_cap_has(), not boot_cpu_has(). If 32-bit kernels don't suppress XFD in boot_cpu_data, then using boot_cpus_has() is wrong. And even if XFD is suppressed, using kvm_cpu_cap_has() is still preferable.
